“Great introduction to color theory!”

I'm a long-time knitter who's always felt like there was something I wasn't "getting" about color. Enter, this deck! I've only started my color exploration with Palette Scout, but already I'm thinking about color choice and projects differently -- more cohesively. Highly recommend!

“This is AMAZING - I'm obsessed”

Honestly, this is one of my favorite things right now. I have been using it for garden planning/paint color schemes and plan to use it for knitting and other crafts! It is SO well made and thought through and a delight. I highly recommend getting this! I already love color and color theory, but this thing makes me love it even more - so much still to learn and play with!

“This is going to save me”

I sometimes hit it out of the park with color combos and sometimes fall short. I understand color theory but have a difficult time seeing it in the abstract; I need to hold colors and manipulate them. Palette Scout has been a great way to do that BEFORE I paint the wall or knit the project, etc. I am just getting into playing with it but I’ve already seen some mistakes I’ve been making and ways to improve my choices.

Choosing Colors is Fun and Easy with Palette Scout

Start with one anchor color and build your palette from there. No more standing in front of your stash feeling stuck. 

Questions

What can I use Palette Scout for?

Just about any creative project or decision that involves color! Our customers use it for knitting, quilting, painting, graphic design, interior decorating, cake decorating, floral design, ceramics, and dozens of other disciplines. If color decisions are part of your process, Palette Scout fits right in.

What's the difference between the bundles?

The Knit Design Bundle is a great place to start — you get the Palette Scout deck and four knitting yarn color match guides: Knit Picks Palette, Jamieson's of Shetland Spindrift, Berroco Vintage, and Harrsiville Designs Highland and Shetland. You can take your palettes straight to your stash or your local yarn shop. Most customers upgrade to the Knit Design + Learn Bundle, which adds the Color Theory 101 course so you can better understand why certain combinations work, plus Sticker Pack so you can save your palettes. 

Can I give a bundle as a gift?

Yes! Purchase the bundle of your choice and give your recipient the physical deck. For the digital components (courses, guides, and swatch files), just email us at hello@zolliemakes.com with your gift recipient's email address after the purchase (so we don't spoil the surprise!). We'll add everything to their account, ready and waiting when they sign up.
