Thought I’d give variegated floss a try; I like all the colors in this skein.
I texted the intended recipient and asked “Blue, aqua, teal, or purple?”—gave her no clue as to WHY I asked. She doesn’t know about this basket cover. She said “Blue with a touch of purple” so I chose the checkerboard borders color with that info. She is a fan of hydrangeas.
There’s potential for small beads with similar hues on the points of the outer border, or on the edge of a sort of blanket hem technique I saw online. We’ll see.
This could take awhile as I have company for half of September and October. ☺️
Gorgeous, just gorgeous!
