I knitted two swatches with size 5 needles. Width gauge is good but length gauge is a little longer after blocking, around 30 rows for 4” instead of 32. I think I like it with Beach Bunny (the light blue) in the middle! Current working order:
Gossip (hot pink)
Rosehip (light peachy pink)
Filigree (mustard)
Beach Bunny (light blue)
Merman (cobalt blue)
Brine (deep teal)

I also did a swatch of 2 strands held double when I was considering the marled fade from Le Pouf, but I decided I like the weight of the single strand enough to outweigh the ease of a dk-weight sweater.
