Terrific Tuesday

colour palette, colour scheme, cotton yarn, Etsy

On a Monday I can still remember the fun I had over the weekend, Wednesday is the middle of the work week, on Thursday I start getting hopeful and on a Friday I can taste the weekend. But what about a Tuesday? It’s so…. just there. Weekend memories are too far away and the upcoming weekend might as well be a year away.

What we need is a bit of colourful inspiration to get us going on a Tuesday, don’t you think? A pretty picture, beautiful scenery or colourful imagery. Yup, that’ll liven up Tuesdays and turn it into a terrific day!

From now on I will go through my photos and Pinterest likes every Tuesday and find us a pretty picture to add colour and joy to the day.

colour palette vinnis Sacré Cœur

I love this photo I took of the Basilica of the Sacré Cœur (Sacred Heart) in Paris. It’s not so much the Basilica that I like, but the contrast between the jumbled colours and shapes of the hundreds of people in the foreground, against the solid imposing shape of the stone Basilica looming over them.  For the colour palette I mirrored that contrast by combining a natural and stone shade with the three primary colours. These five shade will make a piece crochet or knitting with a beautiful balance between colourful and classic. In other words, a piece with French flair.

Wishing you all a Terrific Tuesday.

Vinnis colour palette field of grasses

Isn’t this field of wild flowers beautiful? Do you see the tiny dew droplets twinkling like stars in the morning sun? Good ol’ Mother Nature at her best. She gets it right without even trying.

Luckily we crocheters and knitters can copy her perfect taste with beautiful yarn. I think a lacy shawl or afghan made with an open, feminine stitch pattern would do these wild flowers justice. The dew droplets can be glass beads! What would you make?

Wishing you all a Terrific Tuesday.

Vinnis colour palette cactus

A year or two ago I went to Wisely Gardens with three friends and totally fell in love with the cactus garden, or as they call it the “tender plants”, in the Glass House. This one with its bright green centre really caught my eye. Combined with stone and slate colours, it makes for a beautiful colour palette for Vinni’s Colours. As always, the hand-dyed cotton yarn is available to purchase for £3.50 per ball in my Etsy shop.

Wishing you all a Terrific Tuesday.
