Stashbuster

This hat is a stashbuster, meaning that I tried to use up as much of my wool stash as possible. This touque is in 2 x 2 rib and it's merino wool:


This is sleeve #1 from the cardigan I've been working on all summer. I figured that since the yarn is handpainted and variegated that colour changes would be subtle and I wouldn't have to worry about getting dark patches. Well, as you can see, I got a dark patch:


When I whinged about this on Facebook a friend of mine suggested doing this deliberately to sleeve #2 so that they seem somewhat coherent. Brilliant idea, L!!!!!!
