Quick answer: This is a free, printable color palette planner to help you organize your favorite colors and test combinations before you commit yarn to a project.
Hey there, crocheters! I’ll be honest, I never know how to put colors together. I can love five yarns on their own and still have no idea if they’ll work as a set.
That’s exactly why I made this planner, so I’d have a simple way to lay colors out side by side and actually see what works before I start a project.

FAQ
There’s no fixed rule, but most balanced projects use 2–4 main colors, one dominant, one or two supporting, and an accent. More than that can start to feel busy unless you’re going for a scrappy look on purpose
Laying the skeins side by side in natural light (or on a planner like this one) before you start is the easiest way, colors that look fine alone can clash once they’re next to each other, and this catches that early.
No, only the colors need to work together. It’s fine to mix brands as long as the weight matches what your pattern calls for.
A quiet place to keep crocheting
If projects like this one are your kind of calm, you might love the V-Stitch Club.
It is my little corner of the internet for women who crochet for the joy and the quiet of it, with new patterns, gentle company, and the steady rhythm of always having something beautiful on the hook.
