I'd say the colour wheel and some of the theories behind it make it easier to mix for the rest of us mere mortals! and I partly agree with his disregard for handdyes - but only partly! a lot of yarns do look like "clown's barf" - but often only because they are used with unsuitable patterns... what's ok for socks doesn't necessarily work well in lace etc... sweaters in sock yarn, jacquard dyed are awful, as are most shawls, because of the change in colour spread with changing row length... just my opion, of course:) could luck with the christmas cards - I didn't write a single one yet:( Woolly Bitshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11961632742998726155noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8466385.post-9547524852540230612012-12-01T15:15:59.081+00:002012-12-01T15:15:59.081+00:00This time I clicked on your link knowing I would b...This time I clicked on your link knowing I would be in no danger. :-) As lovely as the new J&S kits are, I am holding out for Kate's new book. I plan to knit several items from it, so I don't dare add a J&S kit along with my yarn order from them. <br /><br />The short, dark days of winter never used to bother me, but that is no longer true. I can't wait until we turn the corner and the days start getting longer again. But as you say, we only have to wait three more weeks. <br /><br />I hope you find your list of passwords. Maybe if you just do a couple of Christmas cards this weekend you will feel like you are off to a good start. And if your Knit Your Own Scotland book hasn't arrived yet I won't be looking for mine to show up any time soon.

Neighbouring states have had a tornado, heatwave and more fires. But, you have had too much rain and other wild weather.<br />And, if it is any comfort to you, I have not written the Christmas Cards either!catdownunderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06959328192182156574noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8466385.post-1715471235432499122012-12-01T09:22:06.865+00:002012-12-01T09:22:06.865+00:00Didn't Jared do the striped scarf with 2 diffe...Didn't Jared do the striped scarf with 2 different shades of Noro?
