For some people, the hardest part in crochet is choosing the right color combination. There is a whole big colors theory behind every combination that works, and sometimes is simply intuition or sometimes even exceptions. The Color Theory 101: selecting yarns that go together is beautifully explained by Stacey on her blog. This post is truly simplifying how to choose just the right colors, so you don't have to rely only on instinct anymore.

I want a wall like this!!!!!
Did we just all have a yarn-gasm looking at that wall?
I think all yarn folks should learn how to match colors. While I can appreciate the hard work that goes into creating something from scratch, some of it looks just hideous.
Can i please have a wall that looks like that please
For me, yarn shops are like candy stores!
I guess a good rule-of-thumb is, if you wouldn’t WEAR the colors together, why would you put them together in one item?? Ugh.
I wish our store had that much yarn
Wow what a dream wall!!

Especially difficult to choose colors that go well together when color blind!
I’m going to move and have a guest room for my yard lol! Dreaming

Thank you for this. It will come in handy.
I think I need to visit this store and soak in all the yarn atmosphere 🙂

Looks a lot like my repurposed entertainment center. It’s got those awesome cubed sections.
Great for sorting for sure.

Forget choosing for a moment and let me just dream of this yarn set up.
Caroline Barngas
I want them all-their cheaper than shoes!##
If only we had that choice of colours in Australia
I have suggested to people with a fear of color to pick up a quilting color wheel – tons of shades and usually portable enough to toss in your project bag
Love the colour wheel ideas. I’ve tended to use the multicoloured wools to avoid trying my own choices. Would be interested to learn about neutral combos with whites, creams and stone colours.
??? As hard as I try to keep it in order, it ends up in a mess! What is a yarn wrap ???
I wish I had all that yarn
Looks like my place
I want the wall!!
Looks like my craft room,too. Lol
my dream room!
