A great warm-weather yarn, I fell in love with the Summer Soltice Paints and just had to bring some in. 

With them I chose a solid colorway of Summer Solstice that would work as a contrast with either -- the Paints having loooong color runs that lend themselves to quite a few beautiful designs.

Both types are the same fiber content: 48% linen + 24% cotton + 24% viscose + 4% polyester and having 295 yards/ 100g balls.

#104: Sizzling Summers (Summer Solstice Paints): I see magenta-fuchsia-sage-rose

#107: Sunset Soiree (Summer Solstice Paints): I see blue/gray-sage-blue-flax-gray

#16 Dewberry (Summer Soltice; an almost-solid colorway) of a rich dark wine.  This is a bit less in cost -- the difference can be seen in the drop-down menu.
