The Gift for the Girls blanket is coming along...half way into #6 of 9 skeins, two more to go in the main colour before the final ball in dark green garter edging.
Casting on, the colours looked like the British Racing Green and tan of a classic MGB Roadster.
Now, all I see on my needles is something akin to muddy greyed brown.
Switching from wooly wool to superwash at the outset was the right thing to do and knowing that made me confident in the switch.
Still I can't convince my hands to stop balking at the feel of this superwash yarn.
Starting/knitting the first half felt like a grand gesture.
Sometimes, even as a project moves along, the further and further it feels like it is from ever being finished.

I am a little bit heart broken on your behalf about British pink. I know exactly what you mean. It's a difficult colour to find.
