I agree that it doesn't look that great on these little ones because you don't get to see the color repeats. Before you give up on it completely, try on something bigger, and maybe even pair it with a white, so that the red and green look more like accents.Mirandahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07966487848401662776noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5019762.post-68051422570576409032011-11-28T06:38:38.950-05:002011-11-28T06:38:38.950-05:00I don't consider Lizbeth HDT although they do ...I don't consider Lizbeth HDT although they do advertise that they are. It's commercially produced so the hand-dyed application has to be limited to be financially viable. Any thread with white between the colors is designated as "variegated" while HDT does not have white, as I understand it. I could be wrong.Ginahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17127914310809216760noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5019762.post-37983864398810162582011-11-28T02:18:59.985-05:002011-11-28T02:18:59.985-05:00That color really makes the motif into Christmas! ...That color really makes the motif into Christmas!

Anyway, I think making a string of lace/chains would be ok using this colorway but whatever it is it surely is not a favourite of mine too.zarinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07892508367397250702noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5019762.post-66777229381254642332011-11-27T22:13:30.875-05:002011-11-27T22:13:30.875-05:00Isn't there a pattern that would bring out the...Isn't there a pattern that would bring out the beauty of this colourway?

I wonder if it would be any better if it was just the red and green? I am not thrilled with the red/white and green/white threads either. There is a really nice lizbeth red for Christmas but I am not sure about any of the greens. I'm still going to tat a lot of things in Christmas colors Teresahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17806552987162578522noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5019762.post-50379956672046484212011-11-27T13:17:16.768-05:002011-11-27T13:17:16.768-05:00Heheheh!

That's most unusual as I can normally 'see round' things I don't like and find some good in them but I can't with this one and your little motifs prove to me what's 'wrong' with it. It's the sudden break from one colour to the next with no 'in between' lead in. I can't Jane Eborallhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05129528958253092545noreply@blogger.com
