I have finished knitting the main part of my skirt – now for the finishing. I need to find or get some elastic for the waistband and sew that together, and I need to knit my pockets! The tough part of this is picking the pocket yarn. This is definitely coming out of stash, as there is so much of it. I was thinking of black, and I do have what is probably enough. But there are some other options that look really nice too…
There are some grays here that kind of blend with the fabric, a darker gray and a black, and two blues that I think might work. The lighter blue is the closest match to the blue flecks in the yarn, but it might be a little much.
Thoughts? Feelings? Feel free to comment!

Oh I think you will be fine with any, including matching the flecks. I would pick a dark grey, I like black but find it harder to see each stitch sometimes 🤔

Any except the light blue, that just attracts the eye so much that I think it will too much personally. But any of the others would work well I’m sure.

I love that pop of blue. I think that would be fun. But that’s probably not for everyone.

It is pretty, but pretty bright. I like it, but also not sure about it 🙂

Hmmm….. I like the top left gray but also think the blue in the middle bottom row is nice. Whichever you choose, it will be lovely.

What color top will you wear with the skirt? I’d start there if I was deciding on a color. But without any idea I’d say gray because in my world gray is always the answer:)

I don’t really have a specific top in mind, but knowing me it will be black or gray 🙂

They’re all fun in their own way, but if it were me, I’d probably choose the medium gray to make it more versatile. If my pockets were blue, I’d feel like I had to coordinate, even if it was just the lining.

That is what I wound up doing. I would definitely always be trying to match.

Think I’d have gone black but any look good! Have to say, as I first saw the photo before opening up the blog itself I thought – ooh, cool knit with coloured bobbles !

I see there are many different opinions – I think a pop of the lighter blue would be nice!
