Wrong!!! Each little bit is kind of pretty, but next to each other ...What can I say? It's hideous. I've ripped it out and re-skeined it so I can over-dye it. I've been messing around with my color wheel and squnching up my face for inspiration. I think I'm going to go with grey -- or maybe taupe, which seems more Lupin-ish -- but I may change my mind tomorrow....
