I think this color combo is growing on me but… idk. I wish the gray was a touch more blue leaning. I am about 50 yards short of the required yardage with just the purple but I also have tiny t-rex arms and will be shortening the sleeves by at least two inches and could probably shorten the body some as well… on the other hand I fucking hate playing yarn chicken it stresses me out and really takes enjoyment out of the knitting process.

(It does not help that I am fucking obsessed with this mixed purple heather and very eh, it’s fine, about the silver gray.)

Hmmmmm…

The pattern for anyone curious, if I added the gray I would do all the ribbing the contrast color. After looking at other people’s yardage I am relatively certain I could do the whole thing in purple but like, is that going to stress me out?
