What's your favorite combo for encased stringers?

[yeepers]

I've been on a total encased stringer kick....maybe it's just me but my stringer control has drastically improved since I started encasing my stringer and pulling a little thicker :D

My absolute fave combo right now is ink blue over periwinkle. Love, love, LOVE it!! Next is just about any transparent over opaline white silk. Gorgeous!

If I don't want a combo I still encase my colors with clear to just to add some stiffness to the opaques.

So??? Spill it...what are some of your favorites for encased stringer? I'm keen to try other combos :D

It's one of the vetrofond odd colors that recently came out. I'm not sure if it's still available but you can try Frantz or check out Galaxy Glass on ebay :)

NS Experimental Green over Asian White (thanks to John Kobuki)

Transparent red over medium red - you can use it under encasement and it stays crisp

[GlassyEyedGirl]

Light topaz over medium red.
