When you click on the picture of the yarn, you get a write up about each
color.  I'm not sure if that is accessible or not so I have pasted the
colors and their descriptions here.  Cindy Z.


Daisy - is sure to bring back memories of walking through a summer field and
picking these cheerful flowers. Daisy shows off a bright grass green and a
warm, golden yellow against stripes of white - combining together to create
your very own summer field of daisies.

Heat Wave -Celebrate the warmth of summer sunshine with Heat Wave! This
summer-inspired colorway combines bright shades of red with glowing shades
of amber, orange and warm yellow. This is sure to be one Heat Wave that you
will be looking forward to!

Sunflower - Add a dose of sunshine to your next project with Sunflower! This
bright shade gets a cheerful dose of color from a combination of bold
pumpkin orange and tawny goldenrod set against a crisp white.

Maps - Just like gazing down on a topological atlas from above, Maps shows
off shades of rich and earthy brown against the light shades of blue and
green. Maps is a fun and versatile colorway that would also make wonderful
children's garments and accessories for warmer weather.

Thistle - is a more subtle, tonal colorway that shows off different shades
of purple. Find hints of light lavender, soft plum, and a rich eggplant
purple for a bit of contrast, making Thistle a beautiful variegated purple
with lots of depth.


Waves- is a blue multi with a more tonal sensibility that shows off shades
of deep navy, bright blue and sky. This cool and calming shade is sure to
become a new favorite, while its versatility lends itself to everything from
home decor projects to accessories and children's garments

Tug Boat - is a cool colorway inspired by the sea - a stormy steel blue with
hints of cerulean and crisp white are akin to crashing waves against a light
ash grey. Tug Boat is a wonderful color for everything from baby projects to
home décor with a subtle nautical twist.

Nettle - is a more subdued multi that blends into almost a tonal colorway of
brilliant greens. Discover bright shades of lime, grass green, and deep
Hunter green as you explore Nettle stitch by stitch. The best part? This is
one Nettle that won't prick your fingers!

Cottage- is a funky, bright, and happy colorway you can't help but love! Fun
shades of bright red, warm yellow, and light steel blue combine together to
create a color that will make you smile.

Lodge-Inspired by rustic cabins and lodges,  this colorway is sure to make
you want to cozy up to the fireplace with a hot cup of cocoa! Lodge sets
splashes of warm evergreen and coppery red against a deep chocolate brown.

Hello all,

I have begun shopping for yarn for the ruffled placemat class. Dishy yarn by
knit picks has been recommended to me. They have solid and multi-colors. I
am looking for a green or light brown multi-color yarn. if anyone is able to
see the colors on the webpage link I am sending, please let me know what
colors might work for me.

 

Thanks, Cathy
