Neutral Territory was designed to utilize those few skeins of luxury yarns we keep hidden in our stashes. I chose to hold a silk blend together, but you could easily do a fingering/lace, fingering/fingering, or heavier (you will need additional yardage and may need to adjust needle size). The marl fade utilizes the double strands perfectly. If you are worrying about running out of Colors A or B, begin your fade a few rows earlier as you have extra Color C.

MATERIALS:
For my Sample, I used Red Door Fibers Cottage Fingering in “Ocean Breeze”, “Meditation”, and “Navigation”.
