what color....

[Auntcut]

what color of yarn do you use for a flesh color? like for faces,hands and feet.

[Chatty]

A peach or apricot maybe or tan, beige. It depends on how dark you want your skin tone.

well if it were MY skin you were trying to do the fisherman aran would work LOL ahahaha

A pastel peach would work perfectly. Or a pale pink.

Why thanks for the laugh this morning (she says wiping the coffee off the computer screen).

 

But seriously, I guess it's going to depend on what yarn you use.

Here's a color chart (of sorts) for Caron's Simply Soft. I did a quick google search. Man....they have color's listed that I haven't seen at my local Wally World.......................I need a LYS:shop (oooh wait...I just made a pledge NOT to buy more yarn in May....ok....shop NOW)

Hi Auntcut,

 

On my Disney Princess afghan I used Red Heart Light Coral.

 

That seem to be the nicest color for skin. It seemed to be the best color. Light peach would work also.
