It’s September and my summer top is done, which means one thing: My longtime WIP (once frogged, now being re-knitted) is out of the drawer and ready to cover everything in red hair!

Unfortunately, it also means that I’m using my old basic circulars again because I superstitious and afraid of changing needles mid-project). Significantly lesser knitting experience compared to my beloved Reflections.

Hah, yup, I ended up having to set a strict colour palette for myself because otherwise I was just picking weird bright colours at random that were fun to knit or sew or whatever, but that I never wore! Just not a colourful person deep down, I guess.

(my palette is like, black, dark green, dark blue, purple etc…embracing my inner witch)

As a person with a cool winter complexion, I resemble that last remark 🤣. My wardrobe is totally in that comment. I’ve been trying to branch out but I keep coming back.

Apparently I’m something called a bright spring and I should be wearing bright orange and turquoise and other such things. But you can rip my dark witchy vibes out of my cold dead hands 😂

Glad that you brought that up! How did you determine your colours? I’ve tried an online tool that uses pictures, but the results are all over the place…
