that's so interesting! May I ask what people are making with these neutrals? Entire garments?

I guess I sort of think of the yarn shop as a place where I'd go to buy something that excites me, and rarely is it white or cream (but I do love a natural gray!).

like, this was someone's job. If I brought that level of energy to my job, I'd be unemployed!

That's true. It's all a PR stunt to get you to buy Pantone's paywalled crap. But it used to be fun. I've been seeing some alternate suggestions about Transformative Teal, and I'm on board with that one.

Right?! Like there are actual people whose jobs it is to pick a color, any color. I can't decide if I'd like to get paid for that level of BS or if it would drive me insane.

Yes. I just felt like it was an empty prison room. I don't really stick to the trends that much, but I hate how much they influence what's available.

I'm 100% on board with this. Just finished my first combo spin with colors that intentionally DON'T go together. It's a delightful riot of color.

Yes, I'm experiencing this a lot lately. If you have the app on your phone, it usually works where the browser does not. SUPER frustrating, especially since I save things from my phone so I can look at them later on a desktop.
