The Name Game

We have a little game that we play at our house after I dye a batch of yarn.  For lack of a more creative name, we simply call it the "Name Game".  Everyone deeply contemplates the color of a particular skein of my hand dyed yarn.  Then, we all make suggestions as to what we think it should be called.  My seven year old son comes up with some pretty amazing and fitting names that I almost always end up using in my shop.

Like Merlin for this yarn...

Rhubarb for this yarn...

Or Galaxy for this one...

My four year old, on the other hand, is a tad more creative.  Here are a few of his recent suggestions...

Dirt (Makes you want to buy this one, doesn't it?)...

Toad (rrrrrribbit)...

I saved the best for last...  

drumroll, please....

Baby Poo (not sure where he has seen any of that in this particular color)...

Maybe I should do a little test and rename a few of these yarns.  Who knows.  Maybe someone is looking for that perfect shade of baby poo yarn for their next project!
