going through some old posts on this blog, i noticed a rather stunning lack of variety in my choice of colors over the past few months.

::exhibit a - the greens

nadine's clapotis


the on-hold cropped pullover


nadine's odessa


ms. marigold


xmas gift #5


socks-to-be


shawl-to-be


::exhibit b - the purples

bell sleeve shrug


green gable


the frogged razor cami (complete with green tank underneath)


xmas gift #2


butterfly-in-progress


some yarn i spun


socks-to-be


::exhibit c - the neither-green-nor-purples

lace gloves


felted pouch (although, this shouldn't really count because i was just trying to use up that odd ball.)


xmas gift #1


xmas gift #3


xmas gift #4 (this is walking a fine line, though. it's pretty close to the purple family.)


shedir


cushion-to-be


nadine's-capelet-to-be


socks-to-be


about 61%* of the yarn i purchased and/or knit since june has been either green or purple.** what's up with that? at stitches midwest, i kept telling myself, no more green yarn, but that green laceweight still snuck home with me.

i used to consider myself more of a pink and blue gal, but apparently not anymore. i think it's the hair.

*(green + purple) / (green + purple + other) = (7 + 7) / (7 + 7 +9) = .6087

**only 2 of these puppies (xmas gifts #1 and #5) were included in this particular analysis because they were all purchased regardless of color. of the four remaining, only one is green.


eta: butterfly!
