When I think about neutral colours I tend to think of silvers, charcoals and blacks. Maybe a navy or slate.

My thoughts wouldn’t head in the direction of screaming orange.

Yes, it’s loud.

When we were at Yarndale Scully and I started putting a skein of this against different colours – and it makes a brilliant contrast.

The last combination is my favourite – partly because it includes plenty of blue and partly because it reminds me of koi carp in a pond.
