More Colors

Here is a quick updates on colors:

SUNSET
Gotta put some sun and color in this cold and dreary time of year... The colors, especially the orange, are really bright and strong.

SUMMER WAVES
What can I say? I just love anything blue and green. This combo reminds me of Caribbean waters, which I am truly missing.

All yarns are 100% cotton and very soft. One 100 gr skein has 480 yards, which is usually enough for a shawlette or scarf. More info is available here - wollesyarncreations.etsy.com

SUNSET Tee

Introducing my first actual garment made out of Color Changing Cotton: Sunset Tee - a little summer top. Now we just need the weather to go with it...

Yarn: Color Changing Cotton 6ply in colorway SUNSET (2.5 skeins)
Where to get yarn: Wollesyarncreations.etsy.com
Needles: 4 mm (US 6)
Pattern: Tee for Two by Helene Rush
Changes made:
a)Instead of seaming the sides I did a 3-needle bind-off and then knit the sleeves in the round.
b)I added a knitted border in reverse stockinette around the neckline.
