Winter Wonderland – My colours Part 4

Week 4 of the Winter Wonderland has come. Time for the snowmen!

But before I show you the colours I used for part 4 here my

My final yarn amounts

I already listed the rough yarn amounts last week when I was still working on the border. Now here some more details, including the leftovers.

I needed a total of 13 balls Stylecraft Special DK and used 1.044 g / 3.080 m of them . This is nearly the same amount that Ana used for her blanket.

My colours Part 4

To be honest I was struggling a bit with my colour choices for this part.

Since Graphite and Lipstick that I used for pattern 8 is relatively dark, I thought that the blanket could do with something lighter again. That’s why I chose White and Silver for the part with the snowmen.

But, after I had finished their bodies and started on the heads, I wasn’t sure if this was really such a good choice. They looked kind of plump and pale.

Do you see what I mean?

But unfortunately, time usually plays a major role when testing a pattern. You have to think twice wether you rip back 15 rows or not. And as long as there is no mistake that inevitably catches the eye, you probably let it be. And so I continued even if I wasn’t very happy about it.

I was all the more pleased when I noticed that Ana had created this little fun touch! Little shawls to dress the snowme.n. They really do wonders, don‘t they?

I made 8 little shawls in Graphite and 1 Lipstick. The red shawl is worn by snowman No. 3 (the third seen from the right). I used 40 chains and I think they are exactly the right length.

And here my colours for part 4

Long overdue update, June 2024: I’ve finally redesigned the documents with my colour scheme and combined the download into one document. You can find a summary of the entire Cal in this post.
Please don’t be surprised that the files look a little different, the content is the same.

Happy hooking 💕
