Fujomoto’s brilliant shimmering blues and aquas, and his vibrant greens are reminiscent of a lush and thriving ocean floor, and fade so seamlessly into the pastel pinks and purple jewel tones of Queen of the Ocean, Granmamere. Her playful dashes of orange and pops of lime in turn make her the perfect fade companion for her little boy, Ponyo.
A note from the dyer: when knitting the colors of this collection for garments, it is ideal to alternate skeins to get even color coverage. These colors will pool, if that is the color effect you are looking for, embrace it! I especially love how these colors look knit up in socks for the pooling effect.
