I have started working my way through test knitting all of the patterns I came up with for the Traditional Colorwork Ornaments. Last night I cast on the Midge and Flea to knit up in 3 colors. The color combination was inspired by another project (
Sipula Bag in warm tones) in which I just loved how the colors worked together. Knit Picks Palette in Marsala, Sweet Potato and Brindle Heather. Working in 3 colors is a tad bit of a tangled mess, but worth the result. I love that Sweet Potato but it is a very bright color and needs a few dark tones around it to calm it down.
Ooooh, I like them. Pretty.
