As long as it's no...I'm with the orange votes, too. As long as it's not that 'fizzy' orange, it's workable. Pick a good warm shade and rock it.<BR/><BR/>As for that scarf - love it. I'm itching to start work on a textured scarf for myself in one colour. I'm getting multi-coloured out.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34097600.post-1158627489343974372006-09-18T17:58:00.000-07:002006-09-18T17:58:00.000-07:00I've got a really good mitten pattern from Beehive...I've got a really good mitten pattern from Beehive that works up beautifully in knitting worsted.

I'll check the HW, and compare that to the Gedifra Living, which also has a somewhat muted orange.CatBookMomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13539824268008907535noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34097600.post-1158605409546385032006-09-18T11:50:00.000-07:002006-09-18T11:50:00.000-07:00I love orange!

Elann's HW in pumpkin is a nice orange. My fave orange yarn is "Glazed Carrot" either in Malabrigo (officially) or other types at Handpainted Yarn. I think they have some 6-ply merino in that colour in stock right now. LB's wool-ease quick and thick has a "Pumpkin" that is a great orange. Oh..and I've seen a good orange in Patons Shetland Chunky. <BR/><BR/>If you pick a yarn that you like knitting with, maybe you won't mind the orange so much.jaynehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04503525097002935287noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34097600.post-1158604811519098962006-09-18T11:40:00.000-07:002006-09-18T11:40:00.000-07:00I think your scarf is looking good, B.I think your scarf is looking good, B.junior_goddesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00014909174642487572noreply@blogger.com
