Hi everyone,
I prefer crocheting with Catania yarn. Now I want to crochet a little figure and I’m a bit overwhelmed by the different shades of pink. Which color do you use as a skin tone for people?
Best regards
Sandra

Hi Arni,

my favorite for that is Soft Apricot from Catania, color number 00263

Best wishes, Sabine

In my opinion, soft apricot (263) looks the best, but sand (404) works very well, too.

Great!  
Thank you so much, then I'll go ahead and place the order right away!
My husband is on a business trip next week, so he won't notice the yarn delivery. :-)

Arni,

you’re so naughty :-)

Luckily, my husband has the afternoon shift next week, and the mail always arrives in the afternoon.... I’ll just rearrange a few things beforehand, and then the delivery won’t stand out so much.... we’re “bad girls” ;-)))

Hehe.
It’s nice to know it’s the same everywhere.

I use 263, too.


And my husband doesn’t even react to new yarn anymore *grin*

I’ve ordered #263. :-)
I also ordered some other yarn, of course. I still needed some for another project, and then I found some really great yarn for baby blankets.
Now I just need someone in my circle of friends to get pregnant. But whatever is finished by then is finished.
And I can’t just order one skein—that’s not worth it.
:-)

@Arni: may I ask where you ordered it?

They're usually very fast. I ordered on Saturday, and I just got an email saying that my package will arrive tomorrow. 
So excited!!!
