Colinette Jitterbug

I just love all the colors here! I have a few skeins of this brand and have been warned to knit toe up. Some people have been having problems. Hoping I don't, but with any yarns, it does happen.

My week has been quiet, mostly been recovering, but I do sound better. :)

GORGEOUS! Isn't that Colinette yummy! I love the black/grey/white theme with other colors mixed in. Wonderful contrast and great photos!

I just love that colorway! I've also heard the yardage is a little short, but the colors, the COLORS!

Glad to hear you're feeling/sounding better. :)

Yeah short yardage and lots of knots is what I hear about Jitterbug.

But the colors! Who can resist the colors! I've never seen bright charcoal before--pretty!

Karen said...

Stunning!!! Really, I love it. I can't take my eyes off it. Why do you think that is???

Oh, yeah, I know why. I have that exact colorway in my stash too. :P

Gorgeous!!
I'm sorry to hear you've been ill, but so glad to hear you're feeling better.

I "set up" my needle case last night, and it's amazingly wonderful! Thank you again for making them.

Love the colors.

That name always makes me think of that silly Wham! song that starts ouy with the word jitterbug. Now that song will be in my head the rest of the day.

That's very unusual sock yarn, not like any colorway I've ever seen before. Very pretty!

Love that colorway. I loved knitting with this yarn. I didn't have any knots but did worry a bit about the yardage towards the end of sock two. Of course it didn't stop me from buying more!

Those colors are so unusual and cool! Also, I'm loving your Gryffindor socks--yours is the 2nd pair I've seen this week and now I'm kicking myself that I didn't make some before the movie comes out so I'd have something Potter-ish to wear. The scarf just ain't gonna cut it in July!

Knit Masala said...

Wow, what a lovely and unique colorway!
