Pastel colours in yarn - blue, peach and yellow

Blue, peach and yellow in soft pastels - a bright colour palette for knitwear.

Pastel colours in yarn give a light and soft look to knitwear.
Here I've put together a small colour palette of blue, peach and yellow in Drops Nord and Drops Kid Silk.
The three colours work well together because they are all in the same light and calm tone.
The combination allows for stripes, small patterns or blocks of colour.
Drops Nord is a lightweight and durable yarn, while Drops Kid Silk can be used to give the project a light and airy texture.
Pastel colours are especially great for spring knitting, baby projects or light sweaters.
I have found two recipes where the two are used.
It's the same design in a sweater or a cardigan with a round yoke and lace pattern.

Blue colours: Drops Nord no. 26 and Drops Kid Silk 07
Peach colours: Drops Nord no. 27 and Drops Kid Silk 53
Yellow colours: Drops Nord 28 and Drops Kid Silk 52
