Hiya, Karen here! The Colour of the Month (CoM) for February 2026 is Grey/Gray which is such a versatile colour as it tones with just about any other colour. It's a superb choice for textured knitting and crocheting, and it is superb as a Plain Jane square becoming a staple base for other colours to shine.
Grey is the colour of intellect and of compromise. It's a diplomatic colour, negotiating all the distance between black and white. We typically consider grey to be conservative, elegant and cool, though it can be a bit mysterious.
I'd love to see examples of your projects posted within this discussion if you would like to share.
I'd encourage 8" squares, handwarmers, hats and completed blankets or panels.

12 pairs handwarmers (in post today)
A fabulous collection, Diane. Love all the bright and cheerful colors.
Wow! While some of us (me) are still contemplating them for a 'near future' project, you have produced 12 BEAUTIFUL pairs of handwarmers, Diane...truly amazing!!
All SO colourful. :))
Merveilleux chauffe-mains qui nous invitent à vous imiter (j'adore ceux du bas). J'avoue que le tricotage des chauffe-mains n'est pas "ma tasse de thé" mais c'est nécéssaire et je m'y mets dès ma couverture complète achevée. Merci Diane de nous inspirer.
J'avais écrit merci "Diane de nous inspirer" mais l'IA nos joue des tours parfois en matière de traduction.
Oh Diane you are so quick to respond to our recent shout out for handwarmers. Thank you for this much needed colourful bounty to help restore our supplies xx ♥️
You're one step ahead of the request on Snippets, Diane. Well done!
I thought that a blanket using gray and a variety of purple variegated yarns would turn out brighter, more cheerful than this one did. Also, I played yarn chicken with all the bits and bobs of leftover purple variegated and lost every time. Maybe this is actually a wool-eater blanket. I had it on my lap during some chilly, windy, rainy days and was glad for its warmth.
Looks very cheerful to me, love these shades together and the design. I'm using grey and 3 other darker colours at the moment and using brighter variegated stripes to lift it.
Fabulous Sharon it definitely shines.
