More colors...

So I broke down and bought some more yarn yesterday. A few different styles that I've never worked with so we shall see what happenes. :) This morning I spend a great deal of time looking up new and different patterns to go with the new colors. (well new and different to me, anyway)


Again, Lion Brand Homespun Baroque: 'Heathered Solid'
This one is an elegant mix of violets and gray with just a hint of dark rose.



Bernat Baby Jacquards Yarn 90% Acrylic and 10% Nylon
This is called Easter Basket and its a lighter weight than I've ever used before. I thought that it would make some cute fingerless gloves.

"I'm a Big Boy" is the name for this one. I just liked the way the blues and greens flow together.

Red Heart Yarn 100% Acrylic



This is as close to the actual color that I could find. Its called Art and pretty much is a rainbow. This I'm making into a hat.





Stars and Stripes pretty much says it all. My husband thought that it would be a cute skein to work with. I have tried and tried to make this into a scarf and no matter what knit or crochet pattern I have tried it just doesn't flow right. I say this after asking 3 different people what they thought of what I had come up with. I'm going to try a hat and see what happens.
