    Really love all those! I think your instincts are right on. The cone and the Aztec blanket look fabulous! I want!! Here’s my thought sweater with space and Aztec. And scarf with gnome and those wildflower yarns with a good mid-color solid for another shawl! ❤️

      For Mother’s Day I received some knitpal retro glam. Then a month later , for my birthday, I received some knit pal cotton to the core! I love the feel of both but I have absolutely no idea what to do with them! So I just hold them and squish them then put them back I their special shelf in the “yarn cellar “ 😂

      Yes!! I'm filming a tutorial for a mosaic sweater, the second construction style that I showed in my Tales From The Tiny House Mosaic Sweaters Video, if you didn't see it, you can watch that one here: ua-cam.com/play/PLU_G451k47sEJUBIKxf9peU7zflPGJvFW.html&si=Rd0PQFQbjGOWT-bX
      I'm nor sure when filming will be done because I'm making the entire sweater while filming but I will release it hopefully by September. That's my goal at least 😅 thank you so much for watching and taking the time to comment! Appreciate you so much!!! 🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻💙💙💙🦊

    @susanhicks770 3 місяці тому

    I think definitely the Aztec Blanket with the Space. That would make a stunning sweater. The other two hand dyed colors, Sea Witch and Gnome? I love those two together and think they would be beautiful in something like a shlanket (shawl/blanket if you know what I mean 😊) Just a large rectangle wrap. Anything you make will be beautiful but I’m like you- that space blue and Aztec just are speaking to each other and must be put together. Good luck!! I’ll be watching ❤❤❤

    • @FiberFoxStudios
      @FiberFoxStudios  3 місяці тому

    All the yarns you showed are gorgeous. I'm only 21min in, so watch, I'll be back with another comment, changing my mind when you show something else, but right now my top pick is that blue cone yarn with the yarn from Heather. As a separate project I would do the Sea Witch with the Gnome explosion, because I love oranges and blues together. They're my favorite. Also my hair color is very similar to yours and that blue cone yarn really looks great with your hair and eye color, if you're making a wearable for yourself.

  • @Knotty_By_Nurture

    Most definitely the cone with the Aztec. The hanks together and then add the cone for a pop of color.

    The Farahan shawl is fantastic and beautiful!!! I don't have specific details because it could be 50 or 60 years ago when I witnessed a conversation, but I recall some lady explaining about putting some cornstarch in water so it's still very fluid (not thick) to help doilies keep their shape. You stir it up and keep moving the starch water around while you submerge the piece, then press out the excess water, shape it and dry it. If it doesn't work, I hope others have good ideas. By the way, women do not sweat. "Horses sweat, men perspire, and women glow." (Unfortunately, we sometimes glow in places no one should ever have to witness!!) You nailed it about why we can't use the yarn we bought to make beautiful things. Then it would no longer be an option for some future fantastic project. The brown and blue really goes with the solid - use it for a solid. It goes great with your hair. The hand dyed go together and the blue stands alone. Go with your heart. I enjoyed this so much I forgot to crochet.

    • @FiberFoxStudios
      @FiberFoxStudios  3 місяці тому +1

      Thank you soooo much for giving me the cornstarch idea!!!! I will definitely try it out! I think I am going to do a test on both the starch and the cornstarch and use a swatch or extra granny square that I have laying around and test each method. Then i will hang them out here and see how they fare/fair 😅 before I do it on another lampshade. One way or another, we will find the right method!
      Space proposed to Aztec Blanket last night, they are officially engaged. Everyone can see they are meant to be so I cannot deny their love 🤣🤣🤣 I need to do the formal announcement of their intent to Wed during the sweater ceremony 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻🤣🤣🤣
      I'm going to go glow more and get ready for the upcoming nuptials 🤣🤣 I will never forget what you said and I will never use sweat again, only glow 🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻🥰🥰🥰🥰😘😘😘😘😘😘😘💙🦊

    I really love that solid blue with that Hobby Lobby yarn, personally!
    I'd do something crazy like take all the other hand dyed yarns and make a statement-ey cardigan like a stripey granny or something lol But you're much fancier than I am on that front, so let's just stick to the colour question you asked hahaha! ❤

  • @virginiadutoit3577
    @virginiadutoit3577 3 місяці тому

    Hi Courtney that is a difficult one. Colour is so personal. I would never put Explosion with any of the others. Personally, my choice is Sea Witch with Space as a cowl. I think it would make up beautifully. I would think twice about putting two variegated yarns together. But, to each his own. Looking forward to the projects. Good luck and best wishes.

      Thank you so much for your input, Jean. 🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻 I really appreciate it! I realized after I did the video that I might want to actually cake those hand dyed up before I even think about combining them 🤣🤣 I was editing it and it dawned on me that I have no clue what they will even look like worked up 🤣🤣 And i already let them fall in love with each other 😅😅😅 My go to, living life on the edge color combos, that no one else would ever do are usually done with 2 color changing cake yarns. I definitely hear your warning and will be cautious. Definitely will swatch before I commit and start a big project! Thank you again. Love hearing from you always. Sending Love & Light and all the yarny good vibes to you 😘😘😘😘😘😘🥰🥰🥰💙🦊
