1. Color # 1 is the natural colorway and is unique among the Solo colorways. While remaining overall an almost-solid it has a wonderful myriad of subtle color: slubs,speckles and short splashes. If you look closely you will see yellow and pink and rose and mint, blue and aqua, brown and charcoal.
2. Color #2 is a close-to-solid tweedy light gray with some cream and teal spun into the plies.
3. Color #9 is again almost-solid and is mostly a deep charcoal, with some subtle variations and nuances of tone.
4. Color S43 is an almost-solid in a royal purple, with again some subtle variations of tone and a few runs of almost-pink and a few spots of blue.
