Arwen was inspired by The Lord of the Rings. She is the elf who gives up her immortality for love of Aragorn, and this colorway was made to go with The Hands of the King, which was inspired by Aragorn.
The colors are several shades of blues and greens along with copper and lilac, though those are very subtle. The yarn is strongly speckled as well with purple and blue-green speckles.

YARN SWATCH
I have included a photo of a swatch I knit in this colorway. It should give you an idea of how the colorway will work up, but keep in mind that how it looks will vary a lot depending on the pattern you use and the yarn base as well.
