Darby says "It had so many shades of green and gray but I was only able to capture a few."

Terry Used the colors of the plants around the wall and the wall itself as inspiration.

The block like weave pattern adds to the wall theme.

Ronnie: I chose the color aspect of this challenge rather than “let no stone be unturned”, simply because I had the colors in my stash.

It is another beautiful chenille scarf for some lucky person.

Carol: My idea was a flowering vine creeping up a wall. I have a very limited amount of yarn at home so I did this as a tapestry..

Carol: I've always admired the work of Helena Hernmarck and Silvia Heyden so I thought I would try to combine two of their techniques -- Hernmarck's use of multiple strands of different yarns and Heyden's "eccentric weft".
