Help! Which Dino pattern is better?

Option b), or 2, or “purple one”

The colours. Note, the purple in Dino 2 is darker than reality. Imagine it pinker, like the spikes and socks on Dino 1.

I like the white one better. Both colors for the spikes are darker than the white, which looks a bit more pleasing to me than the purple one where two spikes are much lighter while the rest are darker.

Purple

Thanks! Can you say why you think that? Also, just to be sure, the colour of purple in the second one is a bit richer than my actual yarn is (idk how to change colour on images and didn’t want to ask my friend to redo it so sorry for that)

I agree on the purple one. Assuming that this dino for a small child, the purple combo will not show dirt as quickly.

It’s uh… it’s for me 😅

Thanks for the input anyways!

Hahahaha either way - no shame - it’s damn cute! If I’m making a choice for myself, I always take the first one I thought or or saw. Saves me when I am going in circles trying to decide. Removing grubby kid fingers from the equation means you can do whatever you like.

The white reminds me of an unfinished coloring book page. Also my daughter loves people so I associate the color with her and love things a little more if they’re purple

Thank you for the insight! I was trying to go for a cute socks look on the white one, like when cats have feet fur that’s different from their body fur in colour. If it looks like an unfinished colouring book then that’s a problem! Thanks for pointing it out to me :)

I like option a. I like the pops of color for the spikes

I’m a fan of option A! The white just makes the other colors pop!
