They can be made using yarn, thread, paint or using collage. Personally I like using yarn/thread more than the other techniques because its easier to get a colour match. We usually make our palettes based on a photo. Sometimes you're lucky and find the exact colour, sometimes its a 80-90% match and sometimes its almost hopeless to find the colour. Also... when you're taking a photo of something the colours in the photo and the real life colour is not the same thing :( Another reason I like using thread more is becasue well I'm doing textile design. So it makes sense to use that material as it's the material I'm working with or a least close to it.
Here a few I've done. Not complete yet and the match isn't perfect - but hard to get it correct.
I enjoy making colour wraps (thats the love part) however its hard to match colour sometimes which can be frustrating (thats the hate part).
