The colorway is flummoxing my eye, too. In the store it was an appealing tomato red, but under other light it sometimes looks more like the melon crayon, sometimes more like the bittersweet. I'm liking the pattern and the yarn well enough, except for the special effect. Hm... to be continued.

Your crayons are soooo pointy? How do you get them to stay that way? Ours are all broken. :(

Paige: The pictured crayons are pointy because orange is not a favorite color.
Love the picture, but I wonder--how many people outside NJ will get your title??
Like Paige, we don't have many pointy crayons about the house either. Interesting color! Like the cascade I used for Shaped V-Neck, the poor digicams have issues picking up the color properly. Pretty for sure.
I am such a Jersey girl. When I saw the title of your post I thought you were going to be talking about THE Oranges the towns, not the oranges the many shades of orange. I'm impressed by the pointy crayons too.
On the contrary, I am always drawn to the orange yarn!
Interesting...very mellony. Not very terra cottay at all.
Despite your digi cam color woes, enjoy the pattern! That's one of my favorite sweaters I've ever knit. :)
I love that photo. The small people in our house always break the crayons so I never buy them. Why to crayons smell so good? The bamboo yarn that I'm knitting with right now is named terra cotta too, but it's really more of a salmon. I think terra cotta should be the color of a clay pot.
My perception of colors do that all the time, change when placed against other colors. I guess I'm just a colored color challenged girl...
