Your style is classic and understated, and you pride yourself on your practicality. This doesn’t mean you don’t go for success. Nope! You know what you want and go for it.

Knitting and crocheting are a safe space for you, and you choose colours that reflect that zen and create classic wardrobe staples.  But every now and again, you step out of that very-comfortable comfort zone and try a hue that’s a little bit of a challenge.

Ready to stand out from the crowd? Here are the top colourway tips for your personality!

1 – There’s more to neutrals than greys.  Just like your favourite jeans go with everything, our Unexpected Neutrals have colour but still create an understated backdrop that goes with anything.

Unexpected Neutrals (l-r): Fat-Free Chocolate, Sliver, Feather, Plume, Gentle, and Sage

2 – Try some gently variegateds for a little adventure.  You can still stick with neutral colours, but the soft undulation of hues is eye-catching without overwhelming your stichwork. Click here to see our collection of gently variegated neutrals

3 – Add pops of colour to a neutral background.  Our Prism Break collection was designed for you!  It’s a collection of gorgeous greys with a repeat of bold colour that levels your neutrals up.  Each colourway on its own is a stunning pairing of hues; as a collection, it’s a rainbow of colour running gently through the perfect mid-grey background.
