Okay, now......Here is my first swatch using Jaggerspun Zephyr - knit with US sz 4 needle.
Here is another swatch using Knitpicks Bare - knit with the same needle size.Did I forget to place a ruler or some sort of measuring device with the swatches? Of course......but I'm not feeling well so I have an excuse......right?
So...which do you all think looks good? Scarlett says the dark one. :)
I also forgot to mention: You, too, can join Secret of the Stole by Nautical Knitter! She told me there are 17 days.....and counting, before it starts! Membership closes October 4th.

I like the darker one, too - the larger picture allowed me to see the color variation. Very nice!
ReplyDeleteI like both. (smile) But if I must choose I would pick the darker one. 17 days and counting.....
ReplyDeleteBlogger is being weird so if you end up with two comments from me, feel free to delete one.
ReplyDeleteI really like the subtle play of color in the darker one. But then again, you did MS3 in a dark color so you may be ready to knit a lighter one. You could go completely weird and dye the KP Bare. Whatever color you choose, your shawl will be spectacular. All of your knitting is.
I like the lighter one better but that's because my old eyes would have a difficult time working with the darker colour.
ReplyDeleteI like the light one myself, and then you could use it with ANY beads, or dye it whatever color yor heart desires when it is done!! I am a member of the KAL and I can not wait for it to start!! MAN OH MAN!!!!!

ReplyDeleteMaria, I like the light colored one best. Besides you already have the dark colored MS3. I'm doing mine in Jaggerspun Zephyr Teal. Which looks more like a seafoam to me.
