Okay, so I have decided on the Bullfrog and have selected a portion of the picture to work on. My main reason was to cut down on the green and also to concentrate on the frog's beady eye.
I then loaded the resulting crop into Photoshop and played with a few colour swatches.
I think I prefer the first swatch although the gold stripe doesn't look so definite in the swatch as it does in the picture. The bull frog's eye is very dark. I will need a black or maybe a very dark brown yarn for that. I have ordered some 2/16 cottons from Handweaver's Studio in London and my next stage is to make some yarn wraps.
