Colour changes coming…

by depravedDyer on January 11, 2010

I know it is hard to believe, but spring is just around the corner and following right on its heels, summer. I swear this is true.  We all know what this means. Time to switch out the colours on the website.

I think we can all agree it’s time.

So here is the list of colours we are giving some time off and you can make suggestions here in the comments of colourways you would like see.

This list will be coming down on Monday the 18th, so if you want more of one of these lovelies and cannot wait until they are back in the appropriate seasonal time, you have until then.

Heading out are:

Alley Oop Autumn Barney Rubble
Basan Christmas Balls County Clare
Crabby McCrabbypants Crabby McHappypants Cracked Canyon
Deck The Halls Dreidel Fall On Tap
Flourite Gingerbread Dude Gingerbread Dudette
Grinchy Hobgoblin Hollyday
Iolite Jinglebell Rock Jonagold
Lochness Oma Desala Red Rock Canyon
Rocktober Rocky Horror Saratoga
Smoky Topaz Sockgate Socktopus
Sugarplums The Claw The Cookie Next Door
The Witching Hour Vine Maple Xmas Rock

    How time flies!  But then, all my makeup addict friends are discussing spring collections already.

    So is this when Stephanie’s Blue Lagoon gets added to the website?

    BBFN all you pretties.

    Now (as she slathers), perhaps we will fall in love all over again with some others.

    Tina, I don’t care what new colors you add – I always love them all!  But I’ve been meaning to ask you if you have any plans to ever add an MCN (merino/cashmere/nylon) base to your repertoire.

    I would love to have Nodding Violet back. It’s one of my all-time favorite colourways, because violets are my favorite flower…

    and I think I seriously under-rated Plankton Ooze when it first appeared and would love a chance to get one now that I’ve seen the gorgeous way it knits up!

    (also, I’m sorry to see Crabby McCrabbypants and Crabby McHappypants go because I’m just a short time away from releasing a new pattern that uses both of these….)

    Spawn of Braun!  Spawn of Braun!  Spawn of Braun!  Can you think of a more cheerful colorway???  (well, probably…) I’ve been scouring the FSOT stashes on Ravelry since it went away and NO ONE is ready to part with the Spawn of Braun!

    Any of the gorgeous greens – Emerald Isle, Emerald City – any jewel toned blue and/or green and preferably together.

    Love the autumn colours, but am assuming they’ll get a replay next fall.

    Fairgrounds, please. 

    And to quote a lyric from ‘60s song from Simon and Garfunkel:

    ‘I’m a citizens for Boysenberry jam fan’.  Boysenberry please.

    Do we get extra credit for quoting song lyrics that contain the name of one of your colorways?

    I would love to see Cobalt Bloom come back. I just adored that colorway. It’s such a great year-round color.

    Anything inspired by the high desert would be splendid. smile It’s astounding how many colors Ma Nature can give to ‘dirt’. Elderberry, Sagebrush and Juniper against the blue-green clay… oh, how I love the desert! Anything you make will be lovely.

    I had a dream to make my own company, but I did not have enough of money to do that. Thank goodness my fellow advised to take the loans. Therefore I used the commercial loan and realized my old dream.
