How to choose your yarn colours: For the best colourwork results, choose two or more groups which are very different from each other - from there, there are no bad choices. I've created groupings of four main hues: blues, purples, greens, and reds. Choose from different hues to get the most variety and colour success (ie green+red, red+blue, red+purple, green+purple etc). Avoid getting two from the same hue. Follow your gut when it comes to preference, but don't be afraid to try something different. They all look good together!
