I'm not sure if they're always flattering on me?? (Depends on the style and all the other elements, right?) Or if they're even trendy and such. But I do love them. It feels very easy to me to slip on a cardigan over a dress, tee, etc. It's like a softer third piece to me.&nbsp;<div><br /></div><div>Robin, thank you so much!!

Teaberry is a beautiful color, not cold or warm.

I vote for the cardigan in #4. I see it as more versatile than the pullover, since it could be worn buttoned up as a top, too. But then, I guess, a cardigan can be complicated because of what to wear under it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/found-my-first-color-of-the-year-d#post-2353487 Thu, 22 Feb 2024 22:14:38 +0000 Ket 2353487@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>MsMaven, I would loooove to see you in a teaberry top! Please post when you find one :D&nbsp;<div><br /></div><div>Joy, It really is a unique color!! I am not sure what to describe it as either.

I am so surprised to find it. I have 9 skeins or 1440 yards, which is enough for a good sweater or sweater and accessory, depending on the sweater pattern. So we will see what it becomes :D&nbsp; </p> <p>My hardest decision is choosing a design and committing to it. Of course, I can always rip it out if the design doesn't work. But that's a lot of hours down the drain. (Though, the risk one pays for hand knitting.) So we'll see.&nbsp;</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/found-my-first-color-of-the-year-d#post-2353096 Sat, 17 Feb 2024 14:33:24 +0000 rachylou 2353096@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Super flattering! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/found-my-first-color-of-the-year-d#post-2353093 Sat, 17 Feb 2024 14:30:31 +0000 Bijou 2353093@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow this is exciting, you will look beautiful in your unique hand knit. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/found-my-first-color-of-the-year-d#post-2353011 Fri, 16 Feb 2024 19:58:41 +0000 Ket 2353011@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><b>Zaeobi</b>, I definitely think I'll layer a cropped sweater over a longer blouse! Unless my bottom piece is really high waisted? I don't feel I wear cropped naturally well on its own. Good reminder not to go toooo cropped! I do like a good front tuck and utilize it a lot.&nbsp;<div><br /><b>Jenni</b>, I immediately thought of you when I saw it was NZ wool! I am being honest! &lt;3&nbsp;</div><div><br /></div><div><b>Jaime, Suz, Suntiger, Katerina ,</b>thank you, lovely friends!&nbsp;</div><div><br /></div><div><b>Sisi</b>, ooo! I'm so glad I inspired you. I actually haven't researched teaberry plants yet. So now&nbsp;<i>I&nbsp;</i>am inspired!</div><div><br /></div><div><b>Jonesy</b>, I hope you find the right color and enjoy it so much! I have only owned a similar color once before in my life, and it was actually much lighter in value -- somewhere between the color of strawberry milk or cooked shrimp. (Gross as that sounds!) I'm not really a pink person per se? Though lately, I'm having some season envy and actually find myself loving winter pink lipsticks -- something I never, ever foresaw. I was very much over winter after 10 years of forcing myself into black, white, and fuchsia. Anyway... may we find more warm pinks in 2024 for both of us &lt;3&nbsp;</div> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/found-my-first-color-of-the-year-d#post-2353006 Fri, 16 Feb 2024 19:39:31 +0000 Katerina 2353006@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow!

I have been wanting to knit that grey pattern for a couple years-not kidding. I think it could be really lovely over my long maxi dresses (short sleeve to boot—chilly in the winter) and my blouses.

But I’m kind of loving it… </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/found-my-first-color-of-the-year-d#post-2352828 Thu, 15 Feb 2024 02:07:15 +0000 Indigoprint 2352828@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I can imagine that gray crop turtle neck in that. yarn color for you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/found-my-first-color-of-the-year-d#post-2352827 Thu, 15 Feb 2024 02:01:10 +0000 Ket 2352827@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><b>indigotone</b> thank you! :D</p> <p><b>rebekahphoto</b> oh thank you!

It is a warm, almost fleshy pink. Think warm flushed cheeks and pink peppercorns, and add a couple levels of saturation. <div><br /> </div><div>Well... </div><div><br /> </div><div>I somehow stumbled across a discontinued yarn. The stock photos looked very promising. I was nervous the color wouldn’t be true to the stock photos. Teaberry in yarn? How could this be!</div><div><br /> </div><div>I spent a long time tracking down a tiny yarn shop in the middle of Wisconsin that had a few remaining skeins. (Yes, it's been discontinued a long time.) </div><div><br /> </div><div>The yarn just arrived and... I have not be left wanting! It's the most unbelievable and beautiful teaberry! It looks beautiful with my dark autumn fans. AND... the fiber mixture is a triumph, It is a blend of New Zealand Merino wool, Angora, alpaca, and silk noils/nubs.</div><div><br /> </div><div>Not sure yet what I'll knit with the teaberry yarn. But the color has stolen my heart.  </p> <p>I'm almost nervous to knit anything out of it. But if 2023 taught me anything: saving nice and pretty things isn’t worth it. It's much better to wear and enjoy, and lose the item to loving wear. </p> <p>PS: I found the yarn in a chocolate chestnut color too. SO... I bought 10 skeins of it. 2024 will be a year of teaberry and neutrals. xo</div><div><br /> </div><div>PPS: The yarn is HiKoo Kenzie in color# 1029 "Hebes" for those who want to try finding it.</div> </p>
