Today Paula was teaching me about holding dissimilar coloured yarns together. Yarn dominance and optical blending of two colours.

I am always amazed at the dominance of adding an alpaca or mohair yarn with a different colour wool yarn. The fluffy alpaca or mohair yarn wins as the more dominant.

A UFO needs to come out of hibernation soon. But I will need to either fix a few mistakes many rows back or make a few corrections going forwards. Until I decide to tink back or knit forward, the project will remain on hold.
