True Colors
11/25/2011
This month, Project Spectrum draws to a close (this round, anyway). This will be my final Project Spectrum post, so let's send things out with some fanfare. Hit it, Phil. . .
(Last time I posted about this project, I shared a video by Cyndi Lauper. It is, after all, Cyndi's voice I hear when I think about True Colors. But Phil has a nice version, too. And so do those Glee kids. See the end of this post, though, for the Ultimate True Colors video.)
When I first started out with Project Spectrum. . . way back in May. . . I wanted to explore the Project Spectrum colors in my landscape, through my camera lens, at my sewing machine, and . . . with an all-encompassing Project Spectrum Color Blast yarn-y project. I was fairly successful in meeting those goals -- and I enjoyed thinking about color within the Project Spectrum context.
Red.
Green.
Blue.
Pink.
Yellow.
Teal.
Neutral.
Yep. All there. True Colors! (Ravelry details here.)
Project Spectrum, I bid you adieu! But first, let's check this out: The most beautiful version of True Colors I've ever seen! Please click in. . . but you might want to grab a Kleenex first.
True Colors, indeed!
omg, I can't stop the tears during that last video. What beauty, what humanity, what a lot of love.

I love your colorful blankey! How did your hands and wrists stand up to all that crocheting??

That blanket is just so full of awesome and the song is the perfect accompaniment.

LOVE this blanket and the scope of your commitment to PS. This rivals Vicki's Parcheesi in my favorites!! Nicely done.
