Value is what holds the composition together. Plan the values and the colors will take care of themselves. I teach how to do a Value Study in my online course, Practical Color Planning for Rug Hookers. It’s such a helpful tool when you’re feeling unsure about color choices. Once the values are in place, everything else tends to fall into line.
