And in celebration I'm giving it away! All you have to do is submit the perfect name for the roving below (there are two, so pick one or submit two names) and a 3.7 ounce braid of the top color combo is yours! If you're not a spinner, I will gladly spin the roving for you and make the giveaway a yarn giveaway! The fiber is 100% heavenly soft Merino, like butter to spin and knit.
So leave a comment with your name suggestion in the comment section of this blog (sorry facebookers, you'll need to visit the actual blog to comment) and cross your fingers! (And spread the word!)
Oh! And I'm working on knitting some mittens (two at a time, be still my heart!) from the lovely "Anasazi" yarn Mr Lobster loved so much. I'm not sure I'll have enough for man sized mittens, so if I run out toward the end I'll make them littler sized (for me, oh darn).
Comments close on October 1st at 10:00am! Winner announced shortly after. Happy naming!
*** Comments are now closed! Stay tuned for the winner announced in a new post! ***

Name for yarn. Jewel of the sea? Or the emerald flash. It is said that right as the sun falls into the ocean you will see an emerald flash. Colors of the sea, sunset and flash are all in this yarn. Love ya Brie, Valerie

Top: Budgies
Bottom: Robin in Flight
(It looks like I'm bird-brained this morning.)
Top: The blue reminds me of a pond, green the lily pads and brown the cattails, so I would call it "Pond Party"
Botty: Right away I thought of Battlestar Galactica, and would call it "Starbuck's Eye"
Beautiful rovings!!
You've brought out the closet knitter in me, Brie! Such GORGEOUS colors!

Your high school friend, Beth
The top: Woodland Fern
The bottom: Harvest Maize
Lovely colorways, no matter what the name!
1st fiber: Pacific Northwest. See http://www.image3d.com/image/Pacific_Northwest.jpg
2nd fiber: Sedona Sunset. See http://students.cup.edu/smi3115/sedona_72_res_cut_iwwg.jpg
Please Note: I simple googled images with the colors you dyed your roving in to find photos that I felt reflected those colors. I knew the first one I wanted to suggest Pacific Northwest, when I look out my front window... those are the colors I see.
Great job on your first fiber dye!

For the top: The sand meets the sea
For the bottom: Russian Beauty
(Funny...I was going to say Great Barrier Reef for the top one & changed my mind...then I see someone has already said that! Great minds....)
The top: "Water Nymph", because this reminds me of water, but is also quite ethereal.
The bottom: "Sante Fe", because it reminds me of all of the turquoise and coral jewelry that was everywhere there.
LOVE these by the way!
i don't know how I missed this amazing giveaway post! I am soooo not creative with names. "ocean coral" is the best I can come up with for the bottom one.
Spring Forest (top one)
Fall Berries (bottom one)
The first one (on top) could be named "Sully Monster"
The second one (on bottom} could be named "My New Dutch Clogs"
