Spotlight on Lomond + Alternate Colorways
Neutrals
Lomond was inspired by one of my favorite ready-to-wear sweaters, a sturdy, winter-weight yoke that's always in my suitcase when I head to my folks' place in Wyoming for the winter. The original sweater was a mix of low-contrast, heathered neutrals, with an oatmeal body that was a natural match for our Fawn colorway, and a single dark CC that anchors the motif. I substituted Red Feather for one of the original greys, to add a little extra contrast and visual interest, and used Charcoal for the darker contrast color that anchors the motif. Here's a look at the original sweater, underneath my Forest Park scarf (standing, somewhat unaccountably, in the frozen Gros Ventre River).
I cannot describe how cold I was when we took this photo.
There are a number of possible neutral palettes for Lomond that I really like, using combinations of our Charcoal, Aspen, and Ash colorways. You could go dark, flipping Lomond's Fawn backdrop for Charcoal and using an Aspen and Ash motif. An Ash MC would give you a very close analogue to the original, while Aspen's crisp ecru would give the sweater a bolder, cleaner, higher contrast look.
With Aspen as the MC...
Aspen is quite a different bird from our other neutrals: though it's made with the same blend of Corriedale and Merino, we don't use any "natural" (read: grey or brown) Corrie to make it, so it ends up being a relatively pure off-white. Because we dye our dyed shades over our heathered bases, this also means that Aspen is one of our only non-heathered shades (Raven, a true black, is the other). It isn't quite as wooly-looking as Fawn and Ash, but it's a bright, clean look that really pops as a backdrop for colorwork (as Meghan used to great effect in her Point sweater from Deep Winter 2020). For Lomond, I love it as a backdrop for Gold Leaf and Midnight, or the original Red Feather and Charcoal CCs.
With Ash as the MC...
An Ash backdrop will be a little darker than the original Fawn, but it has that same sheepy charm, and is enough of a mid-tone to provide contrast against both our lighter and darker colorways. The original motif pairs two colors of relatively similar value (Red Feather and Charcoal), both of which contrast a lot with the MC (Fawn). You could easily replicate that formula here by pairing Ash with Gold Leaf and Midnight, or Gold Leaf and Charcoal. Or, you could flip it on its head a bit, and use two colors of quite different values, one of which is close to the MC, by pairing an Ash backdrop with a motif in Aspen and Red Feather.
I've been getting a lot of wear out of my Lomond on our cool summer nights, and I can't wait to see my mom's version.

A few weeks ago, I got an email that appeared to be from a legitimate coin base customer service tricking me into revealing my login with coin base and getting access to my secret phrases. These hackers wiped out all the funds in my wallet and I was left with nothing. I was devastated and in shock, I couldn’t fathom what had just happened to me and I could barely breathe. While I was in a panic state, I contacted a few of my friends and tech support to help me with the recovery of my wallet balance, in my search a friend of mine introduced me to Morphohack Cybersecurity service, a security company that has a 100% success rate in the recovery of crypto assets, lost wallet and hacked accounts. I provided them the information they requested and they began their investigation. To my surprise, Morphohack Cybersecurity was able to trace and recover my crypto assets successfully within 48 hours. I’m truly impressed and grateful for their service.

I am Cecilia Maxwell, from Sarasota Florida, I’m a single mom with two kids. I want to speak of the good deal done to me by Jennard Investments Limited, I needed refinancing to pay mortgage and an SME business loan. Before now I had tried seeking loans from banks however, I was declined, I had bad credit. But a fellowship member told me of Jennard Investments Limited. I decided to contact the company and as God would have it, I successfully secured a loan $45,000 on the 16th of December 2024. I have made the right choice by contacting them. I advise those out there searching for a good place to get a loan to contact Jennard Investments Limited on https://t.me/jennardinvestmentslimited They don’t know I’m speaking of the good thing they did. :-)
