Mountain Colors

Mr. Canada Post brought in a box from Mountain Colors this morning.
 From Mountain Colors
This summer we're also releasing a new line of gradient color kits! Available in three weights. Trailwalk features the Perspectives kit in our new Superwash base River Wash Sport!
This is a simple Crescent Shawl/Scarf. It can be knit in one Colorway or it adapts nicely to our Perspectives kits. The color changes are included. This scarf is very elastic so blocking is important. You may want to stretch it slightly when measuring sections. 
The kits and patterns are in the store.
Trapper Park features new Perspectives Crazyfoot, a fingering weight kit with a total of 450 yards!
This lovely scarf or small shawl is quick to knit from the center top down to the easy lace pattern at the edge. Color blending makes the final result extra special. 
 
Finally, the worsted weight version of the Perspectives is on our Twizzle base! The Twirling cowl is an infinity scarf and cowl that can also be draped over your shoulders! The pattern includes directions on how to blend your colors perfectly.
The colours are awesome. There are 5 colourways for each yarn.

Here is a great pattern by Jackie Erickson-Schweitzer.

Circular Perspectives infinity scarf / cowl showcases the new Mountain Colors Perspectives yarn kit that includes 5 gradient colors of Crazyfoot yarn. To get maximum enjoyment from Mountain Colors Perspectives yarn, I’ve designed this pattern to use up almost every bit of all 5 mini-skein colors.
The stitch pattern is a simple, pleasingly reversible, lace to knit in the round. You can wear your creation as a single casually looped long scarf, or double-looped as a snugly cowl.

New colours of Bearfoot. Socks or shawl???
Kim's Colorplay Mohair Wrap is growing. I love the colours so much that I sent them off to Ann to knit a store sample.

My knitting? Not really going yet. Still working on the rib. That is my job this afternoon. Get to the colourwork.
