Unusual colour combination

This hand knit tea cosy is a bit different.  I choose colours to match a lovely kitchen I saw in a magazine, although, of course, I forgot to keep the picture of the kitchen.  It is knit in lime green, white and black yarn.


The lighting in my kitchen was not very good for taking photographs today, so I'm not so pleased with the way they have turned out.


Of course this colour combination reminded me of dark chocolate mints - luckily I had some in the cupboard!


I quite enjoy knitting unusual colour combinations.  What do you think?

Love, Liz

I think it's fabulous, it's sure to get noticed when it's on the table and I agree, it does make you think of chocolate mints now you mention it.

I think it looks great. You won't lose the teapot now.

Chocolate limes... a blast from the past. It certainly looks fabulous.

It does remind you of a chocolate mint you're right - I want a chocolate mint now though x

I love this colour combination so fresh and spring like. Just right for peppermint tea:)
