Purple Ombre

I've never been a huge fan of purple but I saw this yarn gradation on Pinterest and fell in love with it.  The link introduced me to the brilliantly talented Erica of Colorshift Yarn. This woman understands details of color like no one I've ever encountered:  The art, physics and chemistry of it. You have to look at her work if to stare at it in fascination. I just ordered this for a new design. They aren't colors I typically use but I'll soldier through to reach the pink, sure I will. The effect of all of them together is fascinating to me!

I saw this J.Crew montage recently and realized I'm not the only one with shades of pretty lavenders on the brain. I especially love that top one on the left.

 I attempted to photograph the yarn she dyed for me  but our kitten, KitKat, kept getting in the picture.  I have some great new patterns that are completed and I'll be putting one of them up next week so be sure to check back!
