and the winner is
nobody guessed the exact combination (lemongrass and fire on the mountain) but 6 people got at least one of the colors right. so from that i drew a random winner...
the winner is J who guessed lemongrass and tidepool - now J - there isn't a link to a blog or anything when I click on your name, so please contact me at amyATgoodtobegirlDOTcom to claim your prize.
the prize being...
a skein of str january one to get you started on your own chev scarf or for a pair of socks, or whatever! and an assorted set of 5 gtbg stitch markers!
i am loving this color combination. i promise this one won't be frogged! it is a bit bright, but i love the contrast between the 2 colorways. for those that guessed farmhouse and watermelon tourmaline, you were right that i had been loving those on the flickr group - but the yarn shop didn't have farmhouse so i got fire on the mountain. i first paired it with watermelon tourmaline. when i took a picture of it i realized that the watermelon tourmaline looked really light (a lot like the pictures in the group), but in reality they were much brighter. and the peach just stuck out too much for my taste. so i frogged and got rid of watermelon tourmaline for good. i was wondering why the pics for that color combination on flickr looked a bit different from knitter to knitter.

ooh i love the combination. i wasn't that far off though. i think the other color i picked was similar to fire on the mountain.
i have excellent taste ;)
hmmm i may have to do some shopping.
Nice combo!
I'd love to do one of these scarves but I'm afraid to try and order the yarn for it from the internet - whenever I order yarn, it's never exactly what I thought it would be.
It turned out beautiful...even though I was completely wrong!
that is absolutely gorgeous
Absolutely eye pleasing colors - BEAUTIFUL!
I would never have guessed anything that bright for you. Wow.
How's the Habu. I find the stainless steel just the bee's knees. It's just stiff enough.
Bringht and funky. :) I am glad that you will not be frogging this one. Lol.
That is gorgeous!
That's looking REALLY good - great combo choice! I'm glad to hear you found a winner :)
Congratulations to J. That's such a great prize.
I love the color combo you chose. I actually thought I liked your first combo, but this combo is amazing!!
Wow, very cool combo!
Amy - I'm such a knitting slut. I want to do the scarf now. Help me pick out colors on Friday!!!
