I have to use my imagination to see the diamonds, which doesn't seem good. Chris's last blog post..In which our secret knitting project is revealed

I think the red would be better than the golden brown that’s there now. I keep thinking that something even darker would look nice… such as a very dark brown or black where the golden brown is.

Agreed the color needs to be changed out. Risa's last blog post..Round and Round

I think you need to change the color if you want to see the pattern - and I also think you might want to change what hand you're holding the colors with to make them more dominant. It can make a big difference. JessaLu's last blog post..If you didn’t hate me on Friday…

Yup, the brown does get lost. The red will be an excellent sub. I'd use it for the red for the bands section around the center and keep using the yellowish as you're using it now. This is going to be so pretty! Kim's last blog post..My Needles Seem Empty Yet My Heart is Full

Definitely change the yarn. I think the red in place of the light brown would be nice. I think if you want to keep the feel of theoriginal you’ll want to keep the center color the same.

YUP gotta change the yarn. But I think that the red in the center with the yellow for the bands would really work well. Try a small swatch (I hate to swatch!) both ways and see which you prefer.

Well, the yarn looks lovely and the pattern is gorgeous, but I agree - the contrast doesn't seem to work. It would be such a shame to have the wonderful pattern simply disappear. I'm sorry to say it, but I agree with you, I think you need another color that POPs. Good luck. Jennifer's last blog post..Why I Love Being a Mom

I think you will need to change out the color. Unfortunately the light brown is barely visible. Wanda's last blog post..Sockin' Away
