I'm going to be in catch up mode along with some others. I just ordered Calmer from my LYS yesterday; it should only be about a week before I have it in my hot little hands.
I'm knitting this sweater with three potential wearers in mind. If I were knitting it only for myself, I would use Amour -- I love that color, it looks good on me, and I think the sweater would be stunning! It is not a color that my two red-headed daughters could wear, though. At least one of them will wear pink, and the the shade my LYS had was perfect, but it's not for me and the other won't wear pink.
I ended up choosing Laurel, a color that all three of us look good in. If we love, love, love it when finished, perhaps I'll knit another in Amour. And maybe another in pink... I can't wait to get started!
