I'm so excited about this project. I'm going to knit this little sweater from Roo Designs for my 3 year old son. I bought these four luscious colors of Spud & Chloe Sweater in super cute, springy colors. Here's my dilemma... I can't decide which colors to put where. What do you think? I need your help picking which colors to use as the background stripes, and which to use as the sheepy feet, face, and sleeves. Let me know what you think. :)
In the mean time, I need to keep knitting away on the lace capelet... I badly want to start this project but won't until the capelet is done. I'm knitting the border right now. By my estimation the border before attaching to the perimeter is going to be about seven feet long. I'm about 12 repeats in and have 16 more to go. I've already thought about turning this in to a pillow but simply won't... pillow-a-fying everything is turning in to a bad habit for when I don't feel like finishing something properly.

Oh it's going to be so cute! I'd go with the gold/yellow for the face and sleeves- the orange might be a little too oompaloompa
I agree with the previous commenter. Yellow for the sleeves and face, and orange and green stripes for the body. I love it. It's going to be lovely no matter what combination you choose.
I gotta say I agree with Libby and Julie! I think the contrasts will be so nice! Looks like a decadent project. Have fun!
What a wonderful pattern and the colors are gorgeous together. I agree too, orange and green stripes otherwise the sheep might look a bit funny!
I agree with Libby, Julie, and Katie. I can't wait to see pictures of the final project.
Orange is such a good color for Tommy. Put it closest to his face. I know this project will get done...orange and green are your favorite colors! Happy knitting.
I was going to say green/gold for body and orange for sleeves/face, but maybe the others are right - I'm glad I don't have to decide :-)
The green & orange are lovely together so I agree that they should be the stripes. That is such an adorable sweater!
I am bad at combining colors but can't wait to see it when it's finished! Lovely yarn!
