I'm undecided how to start with the next skein. Should I find the light blue in the new skein and start with it or should I just join the light blue with the dark on a new row? In my mind, it looks like it would be too much of a color change to start with the dark when I finished with the light. Has anyone used this yarn with large projects and if so, how or where did you join the new skeins in with the end of your last when they are opposite colors?
    I would match the color sequence only if i don't intersperse the ombre with sold colors

    Thank you. If I didn't know better I would have thought that I made the color changes. I have shown it to my daughter and she beamed, she loved it so much. Now I'm tempted to make another one in red. I LOVE red.

    Sounds like you might gift it to your daughter! It is a fabulous work of art! Red was my Nana's fave too. Would be a beautiful afghan. imalefty

    Thank you and it was so much fun to make! Out of all of the afghans, throws, etc. I've made over the years, none of them were as much fun to make as this one was!

    If I made her one in red, I would have to make two because I couldn't part with it if I didn't because I LOVE red too much!!!!! But, one in blue would be a different story though.
