Though the yarn is stunning in the skein and I love everything about it, knit up, it is pretty wishy washy. The turquoise is giving it a little kick right now, but then it goes very very soft for a long while.
Goofing around this morning, I realized that the thing I like about Steven Wests Spectra is the strong clean lines between the changing colours and the plain yarn.
I played around in paintbox to see what I liked better.
The dark contrast frames the colours and lets each soft change stand out. I think I have to go back and redo what I started the other day, and add some strong contrasting lines on the divisions between the colour sections.
Shouldn't be too hard and I think I know just the yarn to do it. From my stash too.
