Girl with a Pearl Earring was inspired by the Vermeer's painting by the same name. It was originally my September 2019 club colorway and one of my favorites from my art-inspired club, so I decided to make it one of my regular colorways.
I dyed it on So Silky Sock, which gives the yarn a wonderful sheen. It's also really strong and really soft.

YARN SWATCH
The last photos show a hat I knit up in this colorway using Buttery Soft DK. 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, the yarn base, and even the individual skein.
