Color Trending Tangerine in Weaving Design

As you know, we have been learning about how the US market works, about seasons and product categories and channels of distribution. This month we learned about forecasting trends, especially color trends. This is a lot of fun for us because we LOVE colors. We learned that Pantone’s color for 2012 is tangerine, a color we didn’t yet have in our palette of yarns. We looked over the other colors/hues that are forecasted to be popular in the coming 12 months and selected a blue.

Below you can see how these two colors combined in our diamond pattern, which we will make into table runners and placemats. And, because we are so pleased with the color combinations, you will also see some shawls emerge!



Welcome, “Tangerino”!
