Colour sampling

I decided to take some colour swatches from some of my photographs.

I have scanned these pages from my sketchbook and painted the colours I could identify in my photographs using gouache paint.

In the top image, I really liked the grey and blues that work alongside the green and grey/black tones.

The image (left) shows the variety of lilacs, purples and blues. The second stripe shows the range of less obvious greys and pistachio tones and I feel that they play off against one another really well. I feel as though this would help inform my yarn decisions and perhaps help when dyeing yarns
