Tips For Color Selection: When selecting colors from your stash of leftover yarn, choose something dark, something light, and something bright. Additional neutral colors can also be added such as beige, ivory, grey, brown, green, and pastel colors. It is a good idea to repeat the same colors throughout the piece for continuity. Before you begin, prearrange your colors in a sequence that is attractive to you. Avoid colors that dominate or clash with the rest. It’s ok to use a bit of yarn that is fuzzier, rougher, or obviously different from the rest. This textural difference visually adds interest to the finished product.
