Those of you who subscribe to Needlepoint Now magazine will have already discovered "Rainbow Ribbons," the lovely counted project that Kam Wenzloff published in the magazine's November-December 2019 issue. Kam used threads from Colour Complements so the thread manufacturer wanted to show off Kam's work and suggest other overdyed perle cottons you might want to use to personalize this piece for yourself.

Just click on the Color Complements website to have some fun color shopping. Just remember you need five skeins of size 5 perle cotton and one skein of size 8, all in the same colors. Will they be Fall Beauties, Pink/Orange Sherbet, or Teal and Purple? You choose!

If you aren't a subscriber already, you can pick up this issue online until it sells out for $8.50. Given all the designs and information you get, this is a bargain purchase.
