Spring collection

It's almost here.

You will like it. It's pretty darn nifty.

And you will be surprised.

And that's all I have to say about that. The end.

Just kidding.

Let's have a naming contest, shall we? You suggest possible colorway names. If I use one of yours, I'll send you a free skein of that colorway. When you make a suggestion below, please be sure to enter your email address so I can contact you if you win. (Your email address will not be visible to anyone but me.)

Have at 'em!

"Sweet Pea"
"Peony"
"Aibreann" - Gaelic for April I could see this as being an indigo blended with shades of brighter green and maybe shots of a warm gray and yellow, something that evoked April showers to bring May flowers.
"Eostre" Celtic Goddes of Spring
"Persephone" from Greek Myth whose return from Hades to Earth brought spring and summer.
"Isis" Egyptian Goddes of spring, birth, renewal, development and responsible for the inundation of the Nile.
