Here are the colors currently in the stash (click through for bigger):
Color 2: Petit Poison Medium --think really dark raspberry, or port.
Color 5: Petit Poison, Number 5, Dark: Again, Raspberry/Port colors. Guess who just realized she had two skeins of Petit Poison?
Color 6: Ein Klein Wenig Verrucht: a nice blue/purple shade
Color 7: WD: Fliederbusch: don't mind the WD, just mean's "We're different" so it's a little off from what the dyer intended. Still lovely.
Color 8: WD: Der letzte Versuch: Actually blues and purples in the skein
Color 9: WD: My Old Blue Jeans: Has anyone noticed I buy jewel tones?
Color 10: Turkis: so bright teal it almost hurts. (Also, seriously I've owned it for 5 years)
Color 11: Amazonas: from earlier this week, looks like Parrots.
Color 12: Im dunklen Wald
And here are some projects that I think would knit up nicely (all of these are Ravelry patterns, you should be able to click through and see them w/o an account:
Pattern 1: Whippoorwill -- this is a lovely 2 color shawl. Please specify which 2 colors you think should go together.
Pattern 2: Spice Route: long rectangular scarf that kind of looks like Clapotis. Might be good for one of the variegated colors?
Pattern 3: Undine: I've been meaning to knit this forever, no idea why I haven't yet.
Pattern 4: La Cumparsita: I love Marnie's patterns. And this looks so elegant. Would be perfect for a cocktail party. (Please note, I rarely go to cocktail parties)
Pattern 6: Arctium: Marnie again, I wasn't kidding.
Pattern 7: Christmas Lights Shawl: I could only make the smallest size w/ one skein. Hmmm....
Leave me a comment, tweet, FB post etc and let me know which pattern and which color.
