Inspired by the Woolly Hugs "Kinship Projects" colour palettes I have decided to create some on my own to share with fellow crocheters & knitters (and anyone else really!)
These are absolutely free to use & I hope you enjoy them as they are or a starting point for your own variations.

Oh and I'd love to see photos of any projects! Smile

Love these! Found them on pinterest and they have made me want to start a new blanket... I put the Vintage colours into my pattern generator and think that it will be my next project Smile

randomstripes.com/ in case any one wants to give it a try Grin

Please dear Zing, (or any other talented people) if youhavetime, I need help!
I'd really like to make these Nativity figures in SSDK. But, what shade would you use for the faces?
I'm rubbish at this. I used Apricot for the last doll I made, but these should be darker. I've got Camel, but it sounds irreverent. I've thought of Mocha, but maybe that's too dark.
Any thoughts? Pretty please?

Zing, I just tripped over this thread again and just feel compelled to say I Love You. I Love You Lots.
I don't know you, but your colour palettes at the start of the thread have cheered me up previously, and again today. So, thank you Thanks

One day I shall knit again. And buy actual lovely wool in all sorts of colours.

PacificDogwod · 21/11/2016 19:31

Sorry, Marci, i am of no help at all, but your project looks fab.

Marcipex · 21/11/2016 19:40

Thank you PacificDogwood.
its a lovely freebie on Ravelry, from Whistle and Ivy.

If you go on Pinterest and type in "Woolly Hugs kinship" all my colours are there! ShockShockShock
I don't know who posted them originally, wasn't me!

Marci
I'll get my pegs out tomorrow and will rescue you.
I saw that nativity set, it's the mini-Cal, innit?

Zing may I ask if you could sort out my colour crisis too!? I posted a thread about it. Basically I need a green to go with citron and aspen and am unsure about the grass green I already have....thinking spring green maybe?

Zing here they are, and thank you for your help. I think the mocha worked well.
I just need to make the manger but I couldn't resist a photo shoot.

If he's hitting his head against the wal it's your obligation to buy more yarn! After all you are only protecing him with wool-padded walls!😉😂

Marcipex · 14/01/2017 14:21

I do too Brian

JellyWitch · 18/01/2017 18:47

Just posting so I can find this again

Doyouthinktheysaurus · 20/01/2017 21:19

These are amazing! Zing you are very cleverThanks

I have such issues with colour combinations, I just can't colour match at all! I'm doing a mandala madness blanket from my stash and some of the colour combinations I thought would be great just jar massively. My problem is I don't plan and just buy random wool colours I like and then I have to blend them together.

This thread could prove to be ridiculously priceyGrin

LemonRedwood · 21/01/2017 09:01

Thank you for your hard work Zing - this thread is so helpful!

And thanks to Marcipex for bumping 😊
