Yarn me up some more, Scotty!

The other colours in the sweater are:

1. a kind of brown-ish gray (called "light brown")
   
   
2. a kind of blue-ish gray (called "light gray")
   
   
3. a kind of black-ish grey (called "dark gray").

All of those pictures were taken in colour and are pretty much true to life, by the way.

The black-ish grey is the main colour of the sweater, in fact. I got 3 skeins of it, since almost every row includes that colour. The others I got only one skein of each.

You may have noticed that they're all heathers. That's a deliberate choice on my part. I had found when making my very first fair isle sweater that heathered colours blend better than solids. After giving it thought, I suspect that a bit of solid on the sweater would help it be less mushy. Maybe you don't know what I mean, but sometimes fair isle sweaters, the ones with really lovely colour progressions, are so perfectly blended that the patterning detail gets lost and you end up with a wash of coloured fuzz. Beautiful, without a doubt, but maybe not quite the way that I'd like to showcase my mad two-strand knitting skilz.
