I made this sweater with a handdyed merino, which I do not sell (I deeple apologize). I invite you to make your own authentic version of this sweater. I do however have some suggestions :)
How about a cappuccino: a skein of white with shades of light brown stripes combined with a darker brown (or call it a chocolate icecream with whipped cream on top!)
Or this one, sundea icecream with strawberrysauce on top: a skein of pinky reds combined with a white with pink stripes (or maybe speckled)
Or if you’re in a holiday mood: a skein in sunset colours combined with a dark pacific blue.
Maybe you’re more a mountain-type: a skein of white/grey/greens combined with a green skein.
What about northern light: a blue/purple and green skein combined with dark nightblue…yum!
Or think about upcoming rain above a grainfield with the sun shining behind you: dark grey tones combined with a golden yellow…
Oh, just one more and then I’ll stop! Heather: grey purplish tones with some green combined with the colour of sand and dry grass.

I can go on forever…
