I want to thank everyone for their input. I finally went with Solstice DK in Desert Rose, which is a warm pink. I loved the walnut but didn’t trust myself to dye it. I think Kathy mentioned peach and it stuck with me.


I noticed some people are adding a fourth color to their Vintersoll. This is Solstice DK in Wicked Game. I like the addition, but I will have to think about if I really want to knit four colors. I have an alternate plan for this yarn if not.
And it’s good I have an extra skein or two because I am playing yarn chicken with Arachne and I may be losing. I’m a loose knitter, which is why I’m knitting Vintersoll in DK instead of worsted.
Virtual Knit this Sunday? 1PM EDT? DM your Skype ID to me if you are new? Hmm??? Silliness aside, I NEED my Blogville Knitters Virtual Knit time. It’s my only social activity aside from when kids come to visit.
Lovely choice. I like the idea of adding a 4th color. They look really good together. Whatever you decide will be great!

I might not make the call this week. We have a day date planned and I might be on my bicycle. If I’m not I’ll join!

Yes, those three definitely work well together. I’d probably not choose to add a fourth, but that’s just me!

Oh forgot to say, I like the 3 colour combo personally. Although the brown is a lighter tone proven when it’s in black and white, my brain keeps telling me the brown is darker than the blue. Maybe an optical illusion.

Hi Alissa. I like the colours you’ve settled on (or almost settled on). I haven’t been around online for a while and have been catching up on a lot of posts. My time zone doesn’t work for your virtual knits, but i would love to join your Ravelry group. I will give it a go when I’ve finished my catch ups. Karen (previously The Eclectic Handcrafter).

Sounds great! Sorry the time doesn’t work. We could try different times going forward if more people are interested.

That’s okay. I’m in New Zealand and we are 16 hours ahead of your EDT. It makes it a bit difficult to coordinate. I think I have managed to join your Ravelry group though. 🙂

I am going to have to join in your virtual knit one of these days. I keep forgetting. The husband and I took a late nap yesterday for two hours. We had a heck of a time trying to go to sleep last night and it was well past midnight before the sandman came.
