Hello Sheri! I have been looking at this pattern for 3 months! I have possession of this pattern but have been waiting for yarn that speaks to me, such as anything with silk or cashmere in it. You know how you see colors and fall in love with those exact same colors as seen on the pattern? Well, I have fixed these colors into my head and nothing has come long to change mind. Does Breathless mimick the colors closely enough as seen on the Color Affection colors in the pinks and greens and is that a blueish grey? You might have to be my eyes to pick out colors that are close. Can you help???

I just love this pattern and your colors are just gorgeous. I did this one for Camp Loopy Challenge #2 in red, blue and tan and it’s great looking! I’d do it again if I ever find the time.

I love Earth and Sky, but also love Chevry, both by Stephen West. Love the assymetrical designs.

Currently making Color Affection in Kauni yarns. Looking great.

I am always drawn to asymetric designs. I will often choose them over the more symetric variety. I guess I’m a little weird like that. I love the Color Affection and have the yarn for a couple of them, but have other things in the queue to finish first. I haven’t actually done a search for other three color shawls, but I think a number of shawls could be adapted for three or more colors if you had a yen for color.

Susan Pandorf has a 3-color shawl as well. Helm’s Deep is quite attractive and on my list of things to do. The pattern is available through her Ravelry account at: http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/helms-deep-2

Some shawls are designed for three colors, some can be made up in three (or more!) colors. Just depends on one’s eye.

I just finished my Color Affection – Madelinetosh in silver fox, manor and tart. I’m already planning another in fall colors.

Meanwhile I have been looking at Pendulum which is two colors but very interesting stripes.

I currently working on a three color Stripe Study for my first Camp Loopy project. I’m doing it in blue and white but one of the white stripes (and perhaps the cast-off) will be yellow.

Olana is another pretty three color shawl I just found. If you look at the project page on Ravelry, I particularly like the blue-green-goldy-rust one. Yum.

I’m going to have a Color Affliction on the needles soon. Cobalt and turquoise blue and lime green. You’ll be able to see me coming!
