Knitted Gerbil Color Suggestions
I welcome suggestions on yarn colors for gerbils to make them more color realistic.
Dark Eyed Honey - suggestion? Orange Maybe?
Topaz - suggestion?
Polar Fox - Slightly lighter than a Grey Agouti
Spotted Lilac - A suggestion was made to use "Linen Marl" (Red Heart/Eco-Cotton).
DEH or Dark Eyed Honey - A suggestion was made to use "Yam" (Red Heart/Eco-Ways).
