Fantastic! Really stunning colors!

Are you on Ravelry? There are a lot of Doctor Who knitters there who would love to see this project!

Wonderful idea! I love the color scheme you settled on but your second choice would have been fantastic, too.

Very Lovely Colors. Yes, do keep us informed!
Nothing wrong with mixing things up. That is why we knit, isn't it?

I shall!

It is why we knit. I figured it would be better to pick colours that I would actually wear. I've succeeded and it's a fun project!
