Eye Candy Friday: Colour Pencils
Until I properly learn to use my camera, I shall steal/borrow photos my camera-enthusiast brother shoots. He borrowed my pencils and tripod to take this photos, so I think I’m in the clear to post about this for Eye Candy Friday…which I’ve been a very poor participant.
Colours have taken on another meaning with knitting. I will rarely knit in black, despite loving that colour in my wardrobe. However, ever since I’ve started knitting, I’ve become more daring with my colour choices, especially with sock yarn, and even my wardrobe now. It’s definitely opened my mind to other options. With Project Spectrum v2.0 full steam ahead, it’s also helped inspire me seeing all the other knitters/crafters/artists explore and create different items using all the shades of the rainbow.
Seeing colour definitely affects my mood and I’m trying to use it to help inspire and lift me during difficult and exhausting times. I don’t know if it’s turning 30 that is making this all come to head but I guess this dour, slightly introspective mood makes sense. I’m not bumming about turning the big 3-0, I suppose it’s just coming to terms with what I’ve done and want to do that tends to happen before/during birthdays that help set my head straight and give me some perspective.
Happy Friday! (Soon).
