Published in the tide of Autumns Lugh 2024. This swatch 'Cloverfield' is from light to Medium Green, with the green hues to sampler with. Swatches to take in store, swatches to check for appropriate stitch/color in a project and swatch to file.

Flora Swatches; 1) Zinnia (Peachy Apricot Orange) 2) Sunflower (Yellow to Cream) 3) Rose (Reds to White) 4) Peony (Deep to Light Pinks) 5) Violet (Lilac to Deep Purple) Fauna into; 6) Woodland (Brown) 7) Dark Forest (Black to Dark Green) 8) Cloverfield (Light to Medium Green) This Post 9) Hosta (Blue to Dark Blue) 10) Aquatic (Light to Sea Blue) IngredientsThe Cloverfield SwatchThe Cloverfield swatch in this post with the 4 Seasons Marvel 8 ply 100% Acrylic in Light to Medium Green tones 'Cloverfield'
Size...8.5 x 6.5 cm plus 3cm loop." Please note: Depending on the dye used on your garn the size may vary smaller or larger with the same garn/brand. You could adjust your stitches for uniform swatches, but I like to keep mine true for I can then better ascertain whether the garn would be suited to a project or not... Tools...

Repeat the Steps to complete the Palette...Pegged...Creating sampler pegs are a great way to not only save some spare garn of a skein but also in labelling and picking colors... Indexed...Over the years I have indexed garns to include tied on tread samples and care instructions on the back. Even when colors and product lines are no longer in production, I find this archiving method so helpful in projects past, projects ripped back or even to keep on top of the changes of what is available... In ClosingTied in a ribbon to hang on a peg board or to take to the store in color matching from fabrics or complimentary garns, I do like my hooked swatch :) Thank-you for reading, Stay tuned for more...
