I love Knitcircus’ inspiration for this new yarn collection. Firefly. One of my favorite shows EVER!
I have some colorways I’d love to add to this list:
- Cunning (something in the colors of Jayne‘s notorious hat)
- Companion (a rich warm red or pink, with bits of metallic gold)
- Two by two, hands of blue (obvious)
- Shindig (something pink and girly)
- Saffron (how convenient that her name would lend itself to a yarn color)
What else can you think of?

I love Firefly and was so sad when it went off the air! Great colors and awesome inspiration if you ask me 🙂
