Colors changing softly

So here is the shawl blocked, a detail, showing the subtle color changes. This was the yarn I spun from the Colinette roving, already dyed, 100% merino, lovely.

From a little further away; I added one more repeat of the petal pattern, and I really enjoyed working the leaf edging. It worked up quickly. If I didn't mention it before, this is a design by Bonnie Evans and can be found in Sock Yarn One-Skein Wonders edited by Judith Durant.

These leaves changing color reminded me of the subtle, soft colors of the shawl and vice versa.
