Ambah Advent - Days 9-12

I've been keeping up with my knitting, but not with my posting.  Here is Day 9 - the color is Cattail and has a nice olive green with an undertone of gold.
Day 10 brought in more of the gold with Scarecrow.
Day 11 went lighter with Hay Bale.
And Day 12 went paler still, with a slight pink tinge and some darker speckles.  The color is White Tea.  At first I wasn't sure you would be able to see any contrast at all, but it is there.

What is so much fun with a project like this is the way the colors interact with each other.  Compare the first picture with the last picture - the golds really bring out the purples.

Day 1 - Smoke Gray
Day 2 - Rising Fog
Day 3 - Moonraker
Day 4 - Lavandula
Day 5 - Queen Anne
Day 6 - Witch's Cloak
Day 7 - Black As A Mussel Shell
Day 8 - Basalt
Day 9 - Cattails
Day 10 - Scarecrow
Day 11 - Hay Bale
Day 12 - White Tea
