Name That Yarn Contest

Wow! It's been too long.  Let's do something fun...something that includes a prize for someone?  I have dyed some yarn, some really nice yarn :o) However, I am struggling to name the colorway.  So, I thought I would put it to all of you to see if one of you could give it a name that fits.

The yarn is a luscious blend of superwash wool, silk, and bamboo.  It has a bit of luster to it and the colors are really deep and rich.  So here is the skein:

Saphire blue, emerald green, and a black.  The colors blend where each color turns into the next so there are also blue/green, dark steel blue, and a forest green.

Who ever can give this yarn a name that I like can choose a set of stitch markers and one of my patterns from my store as their prize!!

Good Luck!

April Pair of Felted Bed Socks / Slippers

These are another pair of the Bed Socks with Novelty Yarn from "The Little Box of Socks" by Charlene Schurch and Beth Parrott.

I started with 4 fewer stitches around the ankle to make it a little more snug and I stopped decreasing the toe a little early as I like a more rounded toe. The previous Bed Socks I made had a toe that was little pointy for me (even after felting).

This pair is very comfortable - I hope I don't wear them out too quick!

April Socks

I was visiting my daughter and knew that I wouldn't be able to finish the socks I had in progress, so bought some Woolcraft superwash Sock Yarn in a nearby town. I wanted to be able to leave them with her, and was able to finish some plain ol' vanilla ribbed socks. No pattern, just my basic sock contruction and I used a 2x2 rib for the leg. And they were finished before I had to leave!
