There are 27 different color combos. I'll show you just a few. This is Vacation Day.
Icicles.
Raspberry Bramble.
You really should go here and take a look at them all yourself. There are so many possibilities for this concept. Contrasting heels and toes on socks. How about cuffs and thumbs on mittens? Or maybe a shawl with coordinating edging like Breath of Fresh Air? There's always ears and eyes for someone like Irving the Icebox Monster. Really, it would work for anything where you wanted a little extra pop.
Which color do you like the best? I think I'm feeling the Tickety Boo love today. What do you say we give one away? Just leave a comment letting me know which one you like the best. Extra points for suggesting a pattern. I'll pick a winner on Thursday at noon.

So hard to choose just one. I do like Loopy Lodge the best.
Oh MYYYYYY! That's a great idea. I am totally in love with Icicles. Love. Love. Love.
Oh my Gawd I'm in love with Icicles:) Must. Have!
I like Raspberry Brambles best. All very pretty though. Thanks.
Peppermint Mocha is my set of choice! I think it would make adorable mittens! (Or a pretty shawl, one with a fairly plain pattern, to let the yarn shine).
I love Vacation Day but Pickle Pop is a very close second! This is a great idea.
I love Icicles :) I'm new to knitting so not sure what pattern. :)
I would ordinarily default to Sweetgrass, but I've been trying to introduce a little bit more bright, vibrant color into my life, so I'd have to go with Raspberry Bramble. That fuchsia is just gorgeous!
Oh, I love this idea, and there are so many wonderful pairings. I think I like Cosmic Burst the best.
Forgot to say, I would make a cowl in the multi and gauntlets in the matching solid.
Either Icicles or Raspberry Dream... And oooh, I'd SO make "Asterope" by Romi Hill ... with either of the colorways.. Gods, they're just so lovely!!!
They're all gorgeous. But Vacation Day is calling me. It just made me smile.
I LOVE Loopy Lodge! I am currently making the Taygete Shawl by Romi Hill. Instead of striping two colors for the garter stitch section, I can see using the variegated skein for the main area and the coordinating solid for the lace.
I am in Love with Vacation day. I can sooo see a pair of leggings made in the variagated with a nice pair of fingerless gloves to match! What a nice reminder of things to come in the upcoming cold months!
beautiful colors <3 love them all
Oh, Vacation Day! It's just so happy!
And I can't think of a specific pattern, but I think I wold design a crescent-shaped shawlette and use the "seasoning" as the edging.
Love it!
So many beautiful choices, but today, I'm drawn to "Lavandula". I think Jarod Flood's Woodsmoke Scarf would look lovely in this.
Storm at sea!
I'd like to do Monkey socks, with contrasting heels and toes.... teabird on Ravelry!
Ooh, I would love to try a fingerless mitt with some colorwork maybe? Great options, but I think my favorite is Silver Lining.
Love Raspberry Bramble! I would make Jerry the Musical Monkey!
I love evening snowstorm! I would do some sort of simple lace like Wendy Johnson's Dead Simple Lace socks.
Brilliant concept, gorgeous execution. I'm craving some Cinnamon Toast.
I LOVE Silver Lining, and would make a huge wrap with contrasting edging.
Cinnamon Toast, used for Carousel Socks from Knitty Spring/Summer 2012.
I love Mountain Sunset and Vacation Day.
Oh my - how hard to choose! But I really love Vacation Day. Gorgeous colorway.
I love them all, but right now, Loopy Lodge is my favorite. Not sure what I'd knit with it, but for sure I'd find something wonderful!
Evening Snowstorm. No, Brand New Day. No, maybe Favorite Jeans. I like SO MANY of these. If I had to pick one, I'd probably pick Brand New Day, and I might knit Fields of Flowers socks.
Sweetgrass!!! Socks, socks, socks
Pickle Pop is making me happy. It'd be great for HiyaHiya Sale Lace Socks, with the solid for the heels and toes.
They are all delicious. And I like best of a Brand New Day. It's what I try to remember to tell myself every morning so I can focus on being thankful for it!!
Gretl
Loopy Lodge! It's a great color for here in the Northwoods of Wisconsin!
Silver Lining to make Peeta Socks. FABULOUS colors all!
Oh wow, they are all fabulous! I love Gothic sweetheart but Evening Snowstorm is looking good as well as icicles! (I think if I had to pick it would be evening snowstorm since I am SOOOOO wishing it would snow here in Colorado) And I think any of them them would look good in the Citron pattern by Hilary Smith Callis.
http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/citron
Choosing one is difficult, I narrowed it down to Cinnamon Toast.
Oh wow, that Cosmic Burst is amazing! That would make a wonderful scarf with a contrast edging...
peppermint mocha looks majorly yummy!!!
Oooooooooh. Icicles makes me swoon! I can so see the colorway in a pair of Swirl socks from http://theseamery.files.wordpress.com/2010/09/2010-swirl-socks.pdf
Oh man. That's such a hard call. After staring at them all for way too long, I think Mountain Sunset wins. That little burst of color in the light and dark is calling to me. It's telling me, "I want to be a ruffled cowl, with some pretty buttons." Kind of like this: http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2245/2495454091_1096375d81.jpg
Gothic Sweetheart is amazing, love how the pink pops against the black!!! It would make a beautiful shrug!!!
Icicles looks brilliant! Love it.
Pickle Pop. First of all because that is a crazy awesome name for anything really and because the color combination is so different. Perhaps a cute pair of knee high socks (depending on how tall your knees are) or a long pair of fingerless gloves.
I love Undercover Agent the best! I would make The Taygete Shawl. I would use the biggest skein for the main part of the shawl, the medium skein for the contrast, and the smallest skein for the trim. So pretty!!! ;-)
I would love to make Stephen West's Clockwork Shawl in Harlequin Patchwork.
I love Icicles!! Thank you so much for this giveaway
Grapevine Socks would be great for many of these!!
http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/grapevine-socks
So would the Cowasockys!!
http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/cowasocky
I love the Evening Snowstorm, Icicles, Peppermint Mocha, and Vacation Day colorways the best. But who am I kidding - I love them all!!
I think the Lyrica Euterpe shawl would like pretty sweet in Evening Snowstorm.
Goodness Pickle Pop is just awesome! A cute shawl with a little different color border- yum. :)
Stitchnerd has a cowl/shawl with a small cable border on it that this might be perfect for.
My favorite is the icicles. It would Mage a great pair of Monkey socks.
Purple Velvet..So sumptuous..Will make something warm and elegant
Oooh! I love Icicles!
That's pretty painful to pick just one. If you love me, send me Cinnamon Toast.
I LOVE Purple Velvet!
What a great idea. I love Childhood Revisited.
Mountain Sunset,they are all beautiful. I would make convertible gloves to mittens with a solid mitten flap!!!!
Lovely raspberry bramble!
Purple Velvet is my favorite. But, I'm trying to use less purple. So, my second favorite is Favorite Jeans.
I think I'll go with the Raspberry Bramble.
Purple velvet! Looks just yummy for this time of year. Like spiced wine it revels in fall/winter. Maybe the color affection shawl. My contact is suzannecaplan@yahoo.com
I think Peppermint Mocha is my favorite with Undercover Agent running a close second. Either color would be perfect to make the Goldfish mittens for my girls with enough left over for them to have matching socks!!
Ooh, purple velvet is nummy!
Mountain sunset... I must have you!
I'm thinking of a few things that I'd have to work up, or a pair of socks as you mentioned. In Icicles, I just love it!

I loved the Evening Storm. Love the neutrals!!!
I put several on my wishlist last night, but already owning Tickety Boo, next up would be Icicles, then Peppermint Mocha. LOVE these combos!
love them all! but i think i'd have to go with purple velvet as the favorite. I'd like to make a Thalia shawl (through the loops) with a solid edge.
I love the Storm at Sea colorway. So beautiful! I think this is a perfect color for a shawl. I would knit the Chime Hat and Mitts with it by Amy Christoffers. I would use the contrasting colors for the cuffs and again by the finger tips. Lovely!
I like Sweetgrass and would probably do lizard socks http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/lizard-socks-2
I'd pick Isicles and use pattern Leftie.
Cosmic Burst, though it's hard to pick!!!
I love Storm at Sea because it's a quilt block pattern I've made and like. I also love Evening Snowstorm because it's very peaceful looking - just like a quiet evening snow fall when you're home for the night, have something hot to drink and can watch the snow falling against the street lights :-)
I love them all, but I was quite drawn to the Lavandula, and was thinking they would make a nice pair of Achilles Heal socks, and you might still have enough for a cowl or mitts, too.
Harlequin Patchwork seems to have the right colors for a Jane Austen style shawl. It probably would need two "sets" of skeins to be the right size, though.
Just one color? Really, that's so hard. But if I have to, I choose Lavandula.
They are all wonderful, but I especially like pickle pop.
Tickety Boo for sure, and probably a Honey Cowl. I have my eye on at least 3 'seasoning' sets....
I especially like the Vacation Day colorway.
Lavendula and Love & Kisses! But love them all !!
Raspberry Bramble is my favorite although every color combination is very yummy!!
A beautiful long scarf using the Yarn Harlot's One Row Handspun pattern would look so lovely in any of the color combinations but of course I am a purple and burgundy lover so Raspberry Bramble would be my lovely scarfs color combination!!
Raspberry Bramble and Icicles are beautiful. I would probably do a Cookie A pattern with it. Monkey or Hendra
So hard to make a choice! I'll go with Favorite Jeans.
It's so hard to choose. I love evening snowstorm, gothic sweetheart and Peppermint mocha. I think my absolute favorite today is raspberry bramble.
I think Icicles looks a lot like Delft to me. :D Gorgeous!
They're all lovely, but my favorite is the Purple Velvet. (hope this goes through, had trouble the first time)
Ahhh so hard!! Pickle pop because well its pretty and its called pickle pop! But I also love evening snowstorm too!! Oh if I must decide --- evening snowstorm.
I really like Starburst best but Sunkissed Garden is close too. A couple of shawl patterns come to mind by Fickleknitter Among Friends Shawl and Baah One Skein Shawl.
This is a link
This is a link
I see Sweetgrass as a pair of socks with a 3 - 5 row stripe pattern using the multicolour over 3 rows and the solid over 5 and the cuff and heel.
They are all so pretty, very hard to chose just one. I think I like Gothic Sweetheart.
I love mountain sunset. No idea what I'd do with it, but it is gorgeous.
So hard to choose. Each one is better than the one before. I guess I'd have to choose Pickle Pop not just for the wonderful colors, but also for the great name! And that Breath of Fresh Air is a wonderful pattern for this beautiful yarn. I could so see it in so many of these colors.
I absolutely love Storm at Sea! It would be perfect as a variegated plush dinosaur with the solid for detail spots!
I'd make a Lazy Katy in Cosmic Burst.
I love Mountain Sunset!! And this would be such a perfect birthday gift because today is my birthday!! I'd make some fingerless mitts or a cowl with it. :)
Love and Kisses. Lovely!
I really love the first colorway, Vacation Day. Those colors are very happy feeling ones.
I love them all but First one on this page is my favorite. The vacation one.
It was a REALLY hard choice, but I think my favourite is Vacation Day.
I love the Harlequin Patchwork colorway. It would look great in the Lakedale Shawl by Stephen West
LOVE THEM ALL - but favourite jeans is gorgeous !!
I adore Love and Kisses, with Icicles as a close second.
As for a pattern, I think these would be perfect for the Whippoorwill shawl by Carina Spencer. If I hadn't already bought the yarn for it (Shepherd Sock, and it took me forever to decide on the colors), I would be all over it.
I like raspberry brambles the best even though all of them are great!
They are all very beautiful. My favorite is icicles.
Icicles....love the color combo. And I would make a shawl...of course, it will take a while to find the perfect pattern for this perfect yarn...
I love vacation day!!!
Icicles!.....or favorite jeans would make a rockin' Kilvarock. Can a woman make herself kilt socks? It is a beautiful called pattern.
icicles definitely although I love many of them
perhaps a lacy wrappy scarf-yummy
I love Pepppermint Mocha - Maybe some fingerless mitts with trim or a Taygete scarf.
Oh God! I have to pick just one?! (Probably, since that is the limit my husband will give me if I buy some). Typically, I go for colors like Loopy Lodge or Sweetgrass. I love those teals! But I think my one pick would probably be Starburst since it's so far from my usual color wheelhouse. But oh! Mountain Sunset is GORGEOUS. That's the one I want. Mountain Sunset.
I would love to use this with an afterthought heel sock pattern. Or some sort of lovely shawl pattern that really makes the color transitions sing!
Using Love & Kisses I would make LoveSocks! Romantic!
http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/lovesocks
Oh golly, between Icicle and Raspberry Bramble is so close, I'd take either. And now I want a Sidecar! After last week's Sazerac, this is getting ridiculous (but still awesome!)
Oooh! I love Sweetgrass. :) It's beautiful!
I think my second favorite would be Silver Lining.
So gorgeous! I don't know what I'd knit. I lean towards a sweater like the Wonderful Wallaby for my nearly 3 year old, but something this nice may have to be a shawl for mama ;)
I'm not normally a blue person but that icicles is really talking to me.
Great idea. I think it has to be Lavandula.
It was a difficult decision, but Sweetgrass called to me.
I can envision it as a beaded shawl with the green border.
I would make a triangular, knitted, lace shawl in "Glimpse of Spring". I just LOVE greens!
I love "Favorite Jeans". They would make a lovely lacey shawl.
My favorite colorways are the Icicle and Evening Snowstorm. But there's something I adore about the Cinnamon Toast. It might be all in the name.
I would probably knit it predictibly and go with socks with a coordinating cuff, heel and toe. If I'm feeling really wild I'd knit up a lacy shawlette with a solid boarder.
I think a Chevron pattern would be fun! I would do Lighten Up! by Amy Gunderson in Evening Snowstorm.
Purple Velvet!!
Storm at Sea is stunning! Perfect for just about any shawl, although I would love a Honey Cowl, too. Just like a cloudy, winter day!
Raspberry bramble is amazing!
I love the Love and Kisses. They're all beautiful though! I'm thinking it would be beautiful to make a It's Good to Be A Girl shawl or a My Hope shawl.
Silver Lining does it for me. I'm presently obsessed with grey (in all its shades and variations) and that deep, dark, teal-y/mallard blue is one of my favorite colors. Such a great concept to put these sets together - thanks for being so smart and thinking of it.
I would love the TGV(High Speed Knitting) in the Sweetgrass. The body would be done in the variegated and the border in the solid or the other way around. I haven't made up my mind.
I adore sweet grass I would make a lacy shawl.
So hard to pick one, but today I'm going with Icicles.
Hmm will go with Starburst. The colors would make an interesting Leftie.
I love Early Bird. i'd make a hat with stripes or vanilla socks with a contrasting heel and toe
Purple velvet is really pretty.
I'd love "Storm at Sea" - and maybe make a "High Plains Drifter" http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/high-plains-drifter
I love Starburst best, but I wonder if you could do Roosimine by Caoua Coffee with Silver Lining...
Ooooo! So yummy! Since it "tis the season" I'm thinking of my daughter, and Pickle Pop. She loves greens. And the purple suits her quirky personality! Who knows what she'd make. Socks, mitts, monsters, scarfs. Maybe something for her mother (?) :)
Pickle pop! I love love LOVE green/purple combinations.
I've been thinking it's time for a second pair of Podsters, those lovely flip-top fingerless gloves. I could see having a lot of fun with contrasting colours like Pickle Pop and a pair of those!
Love the Cinnamon Toast combination; followed closely by Icicles. Starting to feel the urge to develop my own pattern again after a long time, or maybe one of Anne Hanson's lovelies.
I would make the Flame Nettle cowl by Laura Aylor in Cinnamon toast and also in favorite jeans.
Peppermint Mocha is my favorite. Can't you just see me sitting at Starbucks drinking a peppermint mocha and wearing a Regina hat by Carina Spenser knit in Peppermint Mocha. Oh what fun it would be.
How fun! I like Loopy Lodge best.
I am torn between purple velvet and raspberry bramble! If I had to choose I think the bramble, as I saw it first, lol! But really I would add most to my stash if I could!
Wow, all gorgeous! Would love the raspberry brambles, maybe in Clapotis?
I love them all but I think I'm partial to the Mountain Sunset. I'd love to do that in a pair of socks!
Vacation Day! I'd do a shawl with a contrast stripe or border.
This time of year, I'm loving Peppermint Mocha! I'm thinking socks with contrasting cuff, heel and toe.
I absolutely love Starburst. Kirsten Kapur's Cladonia would look awesome in this colourway.
Silver Lining is my favorite. I think it would be beautiful in the Whipporwill Shawl (http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/whippoorwill)
absolutely love the peppermint mocha Peppermint Mocha it would be a lovely shawl vbarton24 at g mail dot com
I think Pickle Pop is my favorite. I can see some awesome Monkey socks with a solid cuff and heel. But I can also see a shawl with a multicolor body with the solid edging - maybe Gingko leaves?
Vacation Day for a pair of gloves....so Winter looks like Spring..
I really like Mountain Sunset.
Mountain Sunset is my favorite but it was not easy to decide. I will make "Knock your Socks Off" from Ravelry with it. Love the layout of your website and have been enjoying ready Sheri's Blog. Thanks!
I love Cosmic Burst! I'd love to make a shawl with it.
Tough choices! I also like Icicles, but Pickle Pop, Purple Velvet and Tickety Boo are also strong contenders. Thanks for offering these!
I /love/ the Cinnamon Toast colorway - this would be perfect for a hat & fingerless mitts!
So many gorgeous choices!
M favourite is Childhood Revisited.
Silver Lining is my very favoritem with Mountain Sunset a very, very close second! I'm thinking fingerless mitts with a "flip-top" in the accent color...uh-huh!
My favorite is Starburst, although there are so many pretty ones it was hard to pick. Thanks
I love Rasberry Bramble, but Pickle Pop and Cinnamon Toast are right on it's heels (see what I did there? Lol)
So very hard to pick. Ummm ...
Icicles?
My two faves are Sweetgrass and Undercover Agent. What a nice opportunity!
My two favorites are Icicles and Favorite Jeans. I would knit it up in a striped scarf the solid color having a thinner stripe then the variegated.I would wear it with my favorite pair of jeans and a white sweater and tie it all together with my new scarf to complete the outfit! Awesome!!
I had already added these to my wishlist and sent to the Hubs...hmmm..I like that Pickle Pop..and Icicles....
Maybe a Maxine Shawl, which is a crochet pattern...
I would chose mountain sunset knit as the Different Lines Shawl (link:http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/different-lines)
I'm loving the Icicles.
I'd opt for Cosmic Burst. This colour combo would fit perfectly to two of my pyjamas and I love to have colourful sleeping socks.
I'd probably go for a simple plain soch pattern with solid heel and toe. But his wone would also look cool in this yarn combination: http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/110-33-socks-with-toes-in-fabel
Icicles!! Living in the U.P. of Michigan this would make great mittens. :-)
My favorite is Raspberry Bramble.
I like "A Brand New Day" but vacation day is a close second! Cool idea to highlight the yarn!
