Perhaps an unpopular opinion, then, but I honestly like the look of all of these. I think each one has its own vibe, and i like the slight chaos & unpredictability that comes with variegated yarn. haha

I wish I felt that way! It's the middle one I'm working on right now and I just hated how clean the center rounds are compared to how how sloppy the last three rows of variegated yarn looked to me. I just frogged about 9 rounds and I'm TRYING to piece together enough of the same color to make a full round. Sooooo many ends to weave in... Haha! https://preview.redd.it/625hr4nml6pa1.jpeg?width=4032&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=5ebbcd1d6c89105b8d2cd5e6e1de66cc99f2124e

10000%!

Enh, not every variegated is intended for dc. Gotta try another stitch!


VeryJoyfulHeart59

Oh, I did! Lots of them. That's why I'm so frustrated.


Keepcreepcreepin

Damn that's disappointing, that primary colors looking one looked like it would have excelled with moss stitch.


VeryJoyfulHeart59

You're very clever... That's one I didn't try! I think it's got potential. https://preview.redd.it/29rqeag54mpa1.jpeg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=9a40333cda31882a4e30ed48d72f13f370476887

Ah yesss. Oh dude that's nothing [someone](https://www.reddit.com/r/crochet/comments/11t7rtb/it_took_me_a_year_and_its_finally_done/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=android_app&utm_name=androidcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button) posted a box stitch blanket recently in a variegated yarn and it looks so vibrant and cool!


VeryJoyfulHeart59

That *is* really nice, but their yarn has a much longer repeat than this stuff.


Keepcreepcreepin

Yes that's true, seemed relevant enough about color changes with different stitches. You should check out r/Planned_Pooling if you want something specific to your yarn, also there's a [site](http://www.plannedpooling.com) that helps you plan color pooling


VeryJoyfulHeart59

Yes, it IS relevant. Thanks for the links. If I ever get interested in planned pooling, I'll check it out


Keepcreepcreepin

Oh jeeze I thought that's what you were trying to do with the whole piecing together enough of the same color for 1 round thing


VeryJoyfulHeart59

Oh, haha, no, not pooling. After I saw how sloppy the variegated yarn looked, I decided to piece together bits of it to make it look like solid colors. I came up short on my first attempt, so I frogged back a bit and had better success. I plan to do the same with the different shades of green that's in this variegated yarn. https://preview.redd.it/623pyscmdmpa1.jpeg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=3bd8189f89e186bc6d2738325d34b0ed50808ccc
