Contest Ended October 2008
OK, I have a new contest going. Last night i was at the dye pot and thought using red purple and brown would look beautiful together. I know sounds like a funky combination, but hey I'm a fun and funky gal....lol
Any how, I am running a contest to see who can come up with the name I like best to call this colorway. The rules are:
1. If you can't say it to a second grader, in church or to your Granny, don't use it in the name.
2. To enter you can submit your name idea in the comments section to this post.
3. In the event of a duplicate entry, the person who first submitted the name has the valid entry.
4. Contest runs until the end of October 2008!
Prize is $20 worth of fiber or yarn from my Etsy shop http://lunabudknits.etsy.com !

How about Belmont, or Fullerton? Those are the names of the Chicago L stations where the red, purple, and brown lines meet.
Reggae Beat!
It is beautiful-has to be prairie spring-the colors of the lupens and the indian paintbrush blooming in the prairie sand. I can smell the flowers when I look at it!
Sea Weave! My sister, my niece and i were all checking it out and we thought it reminded us of under the sea in the little meermaid. We also LOVE
the photos of Thing One and Thing Two - and their names! :)
Grand Canyon.
how about Coco-Berry /CocoaBerry? It's lovely!
This is a great contest idea. I'm thinking something along the lines of "sugarplum." Can't wait to see what you pick!
Forest wildflowers -
teabird / ravelry
Fruit and Chocolate? Bronze Blossoms?
Birthday Bash, it looks like a very festive yarn.
Sorry if this is a dup, but I'm not sure the first attempt worked. The yarn is beautiful, and for some reason made me think of a belly dancer's costume, so I'd call it Sultana's Swirl.
It makes me think of gypsy caravans. I think you should name it Caravan.
I don't know what it is but it looks romantic to me. So I think "Twilight in Paris" is a good name.
How about Desert Sunset?
Here are a few photos to illustrate.
Firestorm.
Ravelry: Knittinwolf
i think it is beautiful!
Hmmm, those are the colors of royalty, well maybe not the brown but!!
So..
"Royal Loops"
or maybe:
"Spider in a Blender"
! (reminds me of one of those jokes we used to tell as kids!
Election Burnout
Red, toasted white and sort of blue....starting to also get burned out, when will this madness ever end! Okay, in November.

I think its an awesome combination. It reminds me a bit of Mardi Gras but not quite so I was thinking something like MASQUERADE. So I think that will be my suggestion.
It does remind me of the colors in a the desert canyon, but I love teh funkyness of it - it's got a bit of sparkle to it like falling rain, so I'd have to say
1. Desert Canyon Rain
or
2. Berry Desert Canyon(not to be confused with a berry dessert!)
beautiful dye job!
It's so beautiful! What about Sapphire? sicilianbuttercup on Ravelry
The color reminds me of the mountains near me in the Fall. How about Autumn Mountain Majesty? Debbie
Indian glory
That just popped into my head. It's beautiful!
Tiffany Spiced Chocolate.
Tiffany - blue
Spiced - red
Chocolate - brown
The color combo reminds me of July 4th. Also, those little round things make me think of trinkets that little girls wear.
How about "Star Spangled Bangles"?
Desert Bloom
The red color reminds me of a blooming cholla cactus http://www.arizonahiking.org/elephant_mt1.jpg
The blue/lavendar reminds me of both the purple pancake cactus and the sky later in the day.

The browns and golds remind me of the panoramic views of various mountains in the Sonoran Desert.
It's a delightful set of colors!
I love the color combo. I think "Sari" is a good name. It reminds me of something Indian.
Autumn Sparkles :-)
The red and brown are referring to the leaves falling... and the purple makes the yarn sparkle. I like it a lot
I am picturing a Christmas Ballet. How about Tiny Dancer
Heart of the Cosmos
As soon as I saw it the first thing that popped in my head was "Razzle Dazzle"

Celebration!
It reminds me of party streamers on New Years Eve.
"Red Hat Ladies" or "Carousel" - since it reminds me of painted horses in an old fashioned circus. Well done - it's gorgeous!
Mardi Gras! It's a great colorway
Thanks,

First thought that jumped into my mind on seeing this was a Medieval church so:
