Blue Heather vs Cable Knit Sweater
Blue Heather and Cable Knit Sweater come from the same Benjamin Moore collection. These are both blues, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within blue to land. The 17-point LRV gap — 51 for Blue Heather vs 34 for Cable Knit Sweater — means Blue Heather will open up a space more effectively. Both share a blue character, which means they'll respond to light and surrounding materials in similar ways. A ΔE of 13.7 puts these firmly in different territory — two distinct design choices rather than close alternatives.
