Living Coral-Pantone Color of the Year 2019

Each year there is a new color of the year. This is color is selected by the company Pantone, that calls itself “the global authority on color”. Picking one color to represent the year is a big responsibility. Typically the color that is selected can be found in many of the fashion trends. I have pulled together 20 FREE Crochet patterns that have a version of Living Coral (the 2019 color) in the design.

Living Coral or Bust:

Patone has been selecting a color of the year since 2000. Each year (except for 2016) they select one color that they feel represents the year. In most cases they claim that the color picks itself. Pantone now has a team of 20 people that research color trends to select the color for the next year.
