SMSKAL

So, my swatches are done, i can't decide which colour to use for the KAL though!


What do YOU think??
I have until next Monday to decide which is good as i'll probably dither between the two until the clue is released! lol
If i use the lilaccyblue i will use the 3mm needles but if i use the orangeyred i will use the 4mm needles - they are both sock weight but they knit up completely differently.
I really like the pattern we have used for swatching, it's called "petitgrain" i think and uses a technique i haven't done before where you K3tog but leave the loop on the left needle, do a YO then knit the already-knitted-together stitches together again, the effect is really pretty.

I vote for the orange too, it's a franney colour :-)
