I totally agree with you on the KFO colors. I’m also a summer who can’t wear anything that has a yellow tone to it. I only buy KFO when I see the yarn in person, because their (and other people’s) photos vary so much it’s impossible to get a true impression. IRL I find very few of their colors cool toned enough for my liking.
Really lovely podcast. Congratulations. So pleased I came across your channel. Love your projects and as a fellow cool person, I'm really enjoying your focus on your particular season.
I just finished my Robinson Wrap and indeed, I have a bit of puckering happening on the sides of the neckline. But I was too lazy to unravel everything and just with it. I'm not too too bothered by it so I guess, it's ok ! I just came across your channel, intrigued by your video about how to knit in your color season. It was very very interesting. I discovered I was a Dark Winter a few months ago and it changed everything for me. I've always thought I was an Autumn girl. With this new season color in mind, knitting became more fun and searching for colors that will emphasize my natural features has helped me getting out of my knitting rut.
Did you end up liking the knitting for olive putty? I had trouble discerning the undertones from the pictures too but I just ordered haze and really hope it's cool toned 😅
There are two: the Kitchener method and the Kibbe method If you search them in UA-cam you'll get many videos explaining them weirdly enough I was watching them yesterday
A currently popular project that holds two strands of pure silk is Blouse no 1.

I’m a bright winter and I completely agree! Why is it so hard to get cool toned neutrals 😫

I’d really recommend the mountain walk chunky (DK weight socks) by handmade by florence!

@@sewathome no it was like yellow 🥲 but the merino shade “limestone” is what putty used to be before they changed it!
@truesummerknits oh no! Being able to buy online is such a blessing and a curse in one 😩
I was not aware about body type analysis. Very interesting! Could you suggest how do I explore it; any website that I can take a look at? Thanks
