My perfect colorway would be a self-striping powder blue and brown. I’d call it Ten.
That yarn is gorgeous!!!
My perfect colorway would shift to whatever color I was in the mood for and I would call it Hue. =)
I’m assuming this is open until May 25 and not May 5 :).
Ok, I’m awful at naming things, but I think my perfect colorway would have all sorts of blues and greens with a hint of purple in it, and I would call it Caribbean sea.
Thanks for offering the giveaway.
Dark grays and blues…winter seas
Brown and pink, I would call it, Chocolate.
Lame, I know.
I am in LOVE with this yarn!!!!! What beautiful socks it would make!!!! I love anything with purple in it.
Dark indigo/midnight blue (main color) with small sections of lime, yellow, white and just a tiny bit of pink. Name Aurora Borealis.
cream white with turquoise. i would name it Pearly Turquoise.
Midnight Sky. It will be dark blue with occasional yellows and whites.
It would have to have lime green, orange and purple. As for a name, how about melted crayons. Thanks for the great giveaway

My perfect colorway would be one that has shades of pinks, purples and greens – all springtime flavored – because those are my family’s favorite colors and I would probably name it something cheesy like “Ohana” – because Ohana means family and family means no one gets left behind or forgotten.
pinks and oranges…would name it sunset
beautiful! I just finished my first pair of socks, so this would be so fun to win! If I were to choose & name my own yarn? I’m thinking silver, grey, charcoal and white– and I’d name it Jillian’s Winter Coat after our sweet little angora goat whose fiber is just that color!
Since I am a big fan of all colors in blue. It would be a technicolor rainbow containing all the sorts of blue in the world. And I would call it Blue Neighbor, as a tribute to all sorts of people in the world, we are all eachother’s neighbor..

This summer, my perfect colorway would be some sort of orange, grey and yellow mix (maybe some very light, muted blue thrown in to shade the gray). I’d call it “Dusk”. Well, actually, because I’m a huge science nerd I’d probably call it “crepuscular”, but then I’d have to explain it all the time.

I’d call it Lavender Dreams, and it would be a wonderful blend of lots of different purples.
Fun question! The yard would be variegated rainbow colors and I would name it “Clarabel’s Colorbox” for my little granddaughter.. 🙂
I would have one that goes from robin’s egg blue to turquoise to a deep blue. I’d call it All Day Sky (not very creative, I know).
Ooooh, this is pretty yarn!
Mine would run the gamut of lemony greens and I’d call it “green.” If you think about it, it’s actually a pretty creative name. 🙂
I love yarn in sea blue and greens and I would cll it Serenity.
Thanks for the giveaway! I always participate in giveaway day (with my own giveaway) but was traveling this time around. 😦
My perfect colorway? It would involve lots of pinks. And probably a purple. Name: The Chimesmonster.
a mix of lightish blues and blue greens, i don’t know what I would call it, probably something with sea in the name
Violet, purple, and splashes of yellow/orange. I’d call it Pansy Sunset.
My favourite colourway would be greens and browns and blues. I’d call it Aotearoa.
Greens and blues – maybe “Summer Seas”?
different aqua blues with a hint of yellow and magenta…called Sea,Sun & Sky!
I’d have one ranging from the palest, barely there grey through to dark grey with hilnt of liac and purple and call it Thunderstorm.
