Colors!
I've started the third color* in my Elsom wrap now. This is perfect TV knitting at this point. I would also like to mention that this design was planned for a single color. I decided to use four. The way the colors are working does look a little strange as the shawl is laid out on the floor, but I think it will work well when it's being worn. At least that's my theory. If I hate it when it's finished, I can always frog it; I've frogged things before. For some reason though, while I know that the color changes are kind of weird, I do like it so far. Also, I'd like to note that it was really difficult to keep my feet out of this photo. There were contortions!
I guess we'll see when it's all done! Just one of the mysteries of knitting! Have a great weekend, everyone!
Just in case anyone is curious, I'm using Cascade Heritage Sock in Vintage Indigo, Caribbean Sea, Jade (that's the color I just started), and Herb (which hasn't been knitted yet).

I see nothing weird with the color changes. But then again, it's blue, so I will like it no matter what. And if there is going to be some greener colors, all the better! Nope, not weird.
I agree, not weird. It looks like waves in the ocean with the water having different colors depending on its depth. Still reading and enjoying your knitting. I actually started reading your blog while I still lived in London. I then met my husband while on holiday in the US and he lived near Leesburg, But you moved before I could stalk you in person. Hopefully not creeping you out :-)
