First I do apologize for being such a voracious thread-starter in this forum, LOL. I do appreciate each and every response and hope to be able to give back more at some point. I'm in a bit of a knitting growth spurt, LOL!

Okay...I'm rethinking my hoodie colors. ROFL. I'm hopeless. I have enough yarn to make this hoodie either way, all it will change is the color of my little boy's felted clogs and he does not care! :)

Here is the way I planned the hoodie (and yes I am up WAY too late and had way too much fun in Photoshop). I planned it this way because I am a 36DD and I thought a light stripe across the chest would be too much.

The hood doesn't show but is the same color as the top part of the sweater (light blue in this case).

But I have been looking on the web (found the answer to my pocket question, I was determined to find a good solution and did, I'll detail if anyone cares, LOL) and saw a few with the lighter body didn't look all that great, and that the lighter stripe/arms actually seemed somehow oddly slimming, or at least not as bad as I thought it would. I pondered reversing the colors:

Whaddya think? Those *are* the colors, I'm not changing the three basic colors, and the violet is the stripe - the only variable I can change or am willing to change at this point is which part is light blue and which dark blue.

The colors are all WOTA: Rain, Winter Night, and Violet.

Thank you *so much* if you take the time to dream with me. :) *yawn* Speaking of dreaming, it is WAY past my bedtime.

I think reversing the colorways would be GREAT! I think it would make it more slimming, and the lighter color will make the boobs look less huge, says the 38DD mama who feels your pain!

Okay I should have put #1 and #2. So you like #2 (light stripe across chest, light arms) better?

Thanks for sharing your opinion. :)

i like the second too :D

Ok, not the answer you are looking for but I pick violet with light blue little stripes and dark in the middle. But, I look so much better in purple than the other colors.

I like #2 too. :D

I like #2 also.

lol, I had to take out my color card to decide but I vote for 2 as well

I like the second one.

Okay so everyone on Sewingmamas likes the first combo, and everyone here likes the second. About equal if I tallied them all together as "votes."

I am still not sure!

The colors may be off on the monitor. The darker blue is like a royal-y denim blue. The lighter is a grayish blue. They look really pretty together and the violet really ties it together. Michelle, I like purple too but cd never pull off the violet, which is quite bright, for a main color. I have visions of lots of color combos for this sweater though! :)

I like #2 as well.
