SILK AND CASHMERE COLOURMART SAMPLE

For me to play with so soft and with a 3.5mm hook and 8ply (very very fine yarn) it makes up beautifully.....but not giving me the look l want and the colour is too dark
compared to the pale grey acrylic which is a better colour and the white cotton which is more the look l want...so back to Colourmart tomorrow pure silk may be?
The piles of flowers keep growing ...
tried side by side joining but it needs a fill in flower or square and i used a smaller flower
just left a round out so it made an 8 petal flower
really love these contrasting blended colours
l wonder how many combinations there would be with say...... 20 colours?

Have a good evening everyone
Hugs to all xx
