I don’t watch a lot of awards shows but I really love seeing what people wear to them and the recent Academy Awards were no exception. The theme I heard over and over from the award show fashion was about all of the different shades of pink that were on the red carpet, so I decided to check out the projects made recently on Ravelry that feature pink yarn.

Next, here are a few knit accessories to keep you warm and brighten your day. From left to right: GoldenIris’ Cream Puff, Domicroche’s Galiano Socks and Nantzi’s 2019 Rose City Yarn Crawl MKAL

Finally, I loved these knit sweaters that incorporate varying amounts and shades of pink. From left to right: Secgoff’s As If Tee, eyelikethesummer’s Crazy Marled Raglan and maryks’ Cardigan 2019

I enjoyed seeing all of the different ways people have used pink in their projects. If you want to see more, or to get inspiration for other colors, you can search projects by color family.
