byClaire Winter CAL Colour Combinations

So the secret is out!

On the 8th of November the byClaire Winter Crochet Along will start with the scarf designed by Karlien (@karlienpleizier).
And you need to be quick (just joking of course, the patterns stay available!), because a week later my design for the hat will be released.
The 3rd week the pattern for the gloves by Jorina @crochetrainbowtales will be online too.

All 3 designs are different, but if you make them in complimentary colours, they become a match made in heaven! ;-)

If there is one thing I love, it is thinking of colour combinations!

 If that isn't something you are really good at, or if you just need some inspiration, in this post you'll find an extensive amount of possibilities .
And I haven't even used all the colours of Softmix and Sparkle!

These are all combinations of 5 colours, but obviously you can add more, or less, just as you please. The possibilities are endless, let your imagination go wild... 

In my previous post I mentioned the colours that I used for the CAL, so I'll start off with neutrals, then add some colour, and if you know me a little bit, I can't do without combinations you might find are odd. 
But who knows, it might work for you as it does for me.

Oh, I almost forget: all of the combinations I came up with so far contain byClaire Sparkle, because hey, a girl needs glitter right? :-)

Have fun, x Maartje


P.s. 1: If you happen to pass by on the Kreadoe 2019 in Utrecht (starts tomorrow, until Sunday), you can purchase the yarn for the different sets so you can start immediately on the 8th of November when the CAL starts, or you can buy 1 of the three colour sets or a basic colour set online. The set includes a free leather label.

P.s. 2: The patterns are written in Dutch, but I'll try to translate mine into English asap!
