One of the things that bothered me about the Impressionists’ MKAL project was that the lace design doesn’t show up with the multi colors in the blue/green yarn.
Impressionist Shawl
I think my knitting yarn preferences are similar to my fabric preferences – I like tone on tone without much activity.
Since I had already started over using the green, I didn’t want to go digging for a whole new color scheme but I came up with two more solid yarns that may work.
A New Option
It’s very similar to what I was using but just less busy-ness in the middle color.
Original Plan
The solid darker blue would probably work just fine with the more solid second color but the new darker blue has just a tad of green in it which I hope will tie it in with the original green.
We’ll see how this one goes!

I love your new color choices and it will make all that lace work worth it!

Pretty colors can’t wait to see finished piece

It will be beautiful when you finish! You have the eye as well as the talent!
