It took a couple more helpings of chocolate to get this pink tamed down. Not sure if I'm ready for the rusty shade - I never wear browns or orange. But since it's below my waist, I'll give something new a try. I've taken one photo with the original so you can see how much it has changed.
And here's a pic with the potential partner of cream cotton. The new rusty shade is more accurate in the first photo - its not so dark as in the one right above. I'm hoping the finished skirt doesn't come out looking too candy-can striped. The swatch looked OK though. Casting on - now!
Cream and chocolate, great combo!
ReplyDeleteYour dyeing is superb, and the finished product will be truly an original.
I don't wear browns or orange either, but I'm sure it will look lovely, and teamed with a cream top, yum!
I think it's going to be gorgeous! Can't wait to see it!
ReplyDeleteThis would be real pretty for fall. And is is almost a neutral! I think anything would go with it.
ReplyDeleteIt'll be great. Those colours look good together.
ReplyDeleteI love the outcome in the color pot. Chocolate was an excellent choice.
ReplyDeleteI like the color it turned out. It looks like a variegated chocolate color. It should look great in the shirt.
ReplyDeleteVigorously nodding my head in agreement with all the comments above.
ReplyDeleteI LOVE the new colour! Love the skirt too. Admired the pattern but I don't think I wear skirts enough to spend the time knitting one that might not see a lot of action. But maybe if I had a beautiful skirt I'd want to wear it all the time... hmmm.
