What color is Sherwin Williams Knitting Needles?
Sherwin Williams Knitting Needles SW 7672 is a light, softly muted gray with a subtle warm beige cast visible in its #c3c1bc color value. Its low saturation keeps it from reading icy or stark, giving walls a gentle, lived-in neutral appearance. In bright daylight, Knitting Needles can look like a pale gray, while lower or warmer lighting may bring out its faint taupe-beige side. It suits bedrooms, living rooms, and hallways where a quiet neutral backdrop is wanted without the crispness of a blue-gray. Pair it with creamy whites, weathered oak, linen upholstery, charcoal accents, or brushed nickel for a restrained, layered palette.
LRV of Knitting Needles
Knitting Needles has an LRV of 53.25% and refers to Light Medium colors that reflect half of the incident light. Why LRV is important?
Light Reflectance Value measures the amount of visible and usable light that reflects from a painted surface.
Simply put, the higher the LRV of a paint color, the brighter the room you will get.
The scale goes from 0% (absolute black, absorbing all light) to 100% (pure white, reflecting all light).
Act like a pro: When choosing paint with an LRV of 53.25%, pay attention to your bulbs' brightness. Light brightness is measured in lumens. The lower the paint's LRV, the higher lumen level you need. Every square foot of room needs at least 40 lumens. That means for a 200 ft2 living room you'll need about 8000 lumens of light – e.g., eight 1000 lm bulbs.
