Apparently my grandmother and I can’t tell the difference between black and navy blue/dark blue. What is wrong with our eyes this time?

Ugh Angels colors came out so wrong but I did the best with the colors I had on hand. Husk howver, all his colors were fucking perfect except his ears... the part that has Angels color scheme. Fml

Edit: forgot Husk's blush

Tonight I'll do the background (if I don't epically fail trying to draw the Canal Grande) then it will be time to color it (EECK!!! 😱).

There's a problem. Francesco clothes, in this Venetian style... I don't know which color make them. I mean, of course they won't be yellow like Andrea's but I don't know... Any suggestions?

everytime I have to color something I don’t know which ones are the ‘true colors’ bc in my tablet they are so nice anb bright but in my computer screen they are so desaturated, for example browns looks always ashy and grey, yellows suuuuper dirty. I don´t understand anything

I love buying destash yarn on etsy. Idk what it is but I really love yarn. The running joke is that it only further proves I'm a cat. I found this great deal for a mystery box of like 40 skeins, but sadly i don't have the money for it (in total it would be a little over $100) so i have to wait. I also just found a porg crochet pattern for free I'm excited to try out soon. I've finished a scarf with a pretty glittery green yarn, now I need to settle on a pattern for a baby boy blanket, since I've restarted this project like 5 times. If i had more yarn, maybe I could do a prettier blanket than just blue. I want to own all the yarn and do all the projects to make all the things right now. What's great is that I'm inspired to crochet, what sucks is I can't decide on what pattern to create or how to use yarns to make things pretty. Hmmmm...i guess I need a color palette and I suck at making those (like for our wedding, I'm creating the palette as we go, no idea how many colors there will be, just know that the colors will speak to me as I comr across them...or look at my struggling to come up with a color palette for the new apartment's walls). Idk.
