General wisdom says that variegated yarns don’t make lace or fancy stitch patterns stand out enough to be seen. In this case, however, there was something magical about the combination of an easy lace pattern and these “stippled” colors that really worked. Although the colors of each skein differ quite a bit, from yellow to red to blue, they are all medium tones and none jumps out more boldly than another. That’s what makes this work—keeping the colors to the same intensity allows the lace pattern to really shine through.
