This one goes to Kitten with a Whiplash.
Playing with color in knitting is a lot of fun, whether you’re working simple stripe patterns into a design or using an allover geometric motif in multiple colors and textures.
Geometric Knitting Patterns
There are a handful of actual projects in the book, but it’s really more about inspiring you to play with different designs, whether you add them to a plain sweater or stitch up a bunch of swatches and turn them into a colorful blanket.
This fun book is up for grabs this week; if you want a chance to win it leave a comment on this post before the end of the day Sunday, October 4. I’d love to know about your favorite color combinations. I’m a big fan of blues and greens but I’m trying to expand my color horizons!
Thanks for visiting, commenting and sharing, and good luck!
This looks like it would be a terrific addition to my knitting book library… I hope I win 😀
This book looks like fun! I enjoy almost every color combination: reds and orange, blue and orange, red and black re some of my favorites.
i love a ton of color combos but my favorite right now that I am finding myself working with is navy and cream and dark green or kahki green with a cream color.
Love it! I’ve been using a lot of light pinks and berry shades lately. Or, to get in the spirit, orange and black?
Although blue is my favorite color, and I do like tone on tone, I try to branch out in color combos. My last cardi was Dark Chocolate Brown, Mustard Yellow, Avocado Green and Rust. Sounded prettty tasty ’til the rust, didn’t it?
I like navy and pink. But then I also like Yellow and navy. I think I am just a big fan of navy and other colors.
Love doing color work though could use some new ideas. Love using purple , pink and blue or yellow though with a new grandson i think i need tovthink boy colors now.
I knit a shawl in chocolate brown and seafoam green that’s pretty striking. I was aiming for teal when I dyed the yarn but the seafoam ended up working better than expected.
I love geometric patterns – thanks for the chance to win!
Thanks for the giveaway.
I”m loving Dark purple and Neon green, also gray, white and black with chartruese.
Thank you so much for the giveaway, I could say my favorite color combination is blue and purple 🙂
This sounds like an awesome book! I love to combine blues and purples.
I like black and pink.
I usually go for brown and cream or various shades of blue but am trying to experiment more using a touch of yellow or orange to bring warmth to my knits!
My favorite color combination is purple with almost any or every other color. It just seems to go with everything 🙂 This book looks amazing with some really interesting designs and patterns. Thanks for another great giveaway!
I like experimenting alll all different color combinations usually bright colors with some neutrals mixed in.
I recently made a pink and black striped scarf for my daughter. I really love purples and greens or purples and blues together, though.
Turquoise & brown look so good together, especially in the deeper shades!
My favorite is purple and teal.
Book of my dreams! So I am crossing my fingers, toes, arms, and legs. My favorite combos are pretty predictable New England–cranberry and cream and hunter green and ivory.

I like greens and browns often with yellow and red. Together they remind me of fall foliage. I love playing with geometric patterns in my knitting.
I have a lot of fav color combos. Ombres are always nice. But I also like grey with either pink or blue. And anything with black looks nice!
I am also a fan of blues and greens, but I also like shades of purple.
i would definitely like to have this book
This book looks great! I love brown and color combinations – like brown and chartreuse, brown and sky blue, brown and pink.
Blue and orange would pop for a lot of these geometric ones! my kids love the bright colors
I think coral and purple are a great eye popping combination
Love all things purple.
My favorite color combination almost always is red, green & purple!
Would love to have this for my library. I love playing with colour combos – no favourites at the moment but my usuals include at least one blue.
I love, love pink & brown together. Otherwise, I dig the Japanese ability to mix disparate colors. Sometimes it even works for me.
I love denim blues and off white colors together!
Thanks, Kim Reid
What a great book. I would like to delve into this type of knitting. I love bright colors. Hues of greens and blues. Or yellow, orange, and pink.
Great book-would be fun to do these patterns!
Coral and turquoise! Try’em for a boost of color for Autumn…cool and warm, just like the weather.
