Anyone for Eggplant?

I don’t blog.  Really.  But I do knit.  A lot.  And I do like to look at the blogs of other knitters for ideas and inspiration.  So, while I may not post often or well, I will attempt to post when I am working on something that I think may be interesting to others.  Or perhaps just when the mood strikes me.

 Right now I am excited to participate in Favorite Color Swap 3 and am eager to meet my swap partners both upstream and down.

 Color is something that I am fascinated by.  I love combinations that just feel right, although I could never explain to anyone else why that is so; eggplant and cocoa brown with a little blue thrown in, say, or a deep rust. 

I think that I am drawn to natural colors, greens and browns, with a splash of something bolder thrown in for interest.
