Flash Contest

Congrats to Cindy, the winner of yesterday's Flash Contest who commented on her Spectre choice, "Antique Map is beautiful."   Cindy won a special skein of Yarn Hollow in a bamboo blend.

Let's have another contest!  This quickie Flash Contest will close today, June 12, at 5pm EST.  Leave one comment below telling me your fave color of Lorna's Laces Solemate, and I'll randomly choose one winner.  Solemate very popular right now for summer socks because it's the yarn with Outlast fiber- the one created for NASA for temp and moisture control.  And the colors are lovely.

Here's the color I love right now, Kedzie.  It catches my eye every time I walk past.

[Julie]

Right now, I am in love with Zombie BBQ. The colors, the name, all of it.

[Martha S]

I love them all but if I was pushed, I love Liberty, right now. Ask me in a couple of minutes and I'll probably give you a different answer!
BTW, good luck with the new baby!! :)

[Susan]

Edgewater always catches my eye - I think it's that pop of aqua!

[Kim Deiro]

Country Christmas. Makes beautiful Christmas socks!

[Anne Bond]

It gives me the cozy feeling of a country hearth at Christmas time--I want Country Christmas for sure!

[Mary]

I love Maleficents! So many beautiful colors in this wonderful skein of yarn!!

[Mun Yee]

Multi Magnificient Mile. I just love that tone of yellow and I don't see that tone too often except in a huge box of colored pencils.

[Shari]

I really like Bean, it looks like it'd make really pretty, subtle socks.

[Autumn Pilditch]

I'm also crazy about the zombie bbq. My sister is a big fan of Walking Dead and think she would love something out of this :)

[Brittani t.]

I've never tried solemate but I'm loving maleificent's spindel.

[Jodie]

Lincoln Park is my favorite!

[Marjorie]

[Carol Brown]

Giddings. I love it

[Mary Cast]

My favorite color is turtle rodeo. How can you not love the name this time of year. Reminds me of ponds and flowers.

[Megan Best]

Oooh, its a hard choice between Childs play and Hawaii, but I think chills play wins because it just looks like summer!

Megan

[NancyN]

My favorite is Multi Baltic Sea.

[Rheba Rozeboom]

I love the Kerfluffle.........It makes me smile to just say the name!!

[Andrea Hall]

This colorway makes me think of my favorite place - the ocean...

[kate s]

Multi Campbell just jumped off the screen at me!

[Jan]

Zombie BarBQ is my fav no matter what the yarn weight- Love it

[Judith]

Hard to decide but Giddings looks really good.

[Debby]

Well, I love all the colorways and have knitted with alot of them already, but I think this time of year that Liberty would be my choice of the day.

[Andy Berisford]

Gorgeous colors! It's hard to pick. I think I'd go with Multi Ashburn since it has greens, blues, and purples, my three favorite colors. Turtle Rodeo is running a close second though.

[Elaine]

Zombie BBQ, the colors are great, but I love the name!

[Kay]

Maleficents Spindel is calling my name!

[Kathie]

I like the Ashburn

[Judi Kennedy]

I agree with you. Kedzie caught my eye to the tune of "I want one skein".

[Cindy]

Mine is the Multi Gold Hill. It reminds me of colors in the Vermillion Cliffs in Utah!

[Andrea W]

What a beautiful color -L SM Solid Fjord. I am into blues and this is this most perfect skein of blues I have ever seen. Would love to make toasties for my piggies! Absolutely lone it!

[Barbara]

Not an easy choice - but I'll go for Skyway!

[mary]

Multi Watercolor would be fine for summer knittig. Mary [email protected]

[Lucy Portland]

I like Multi-Watercolor. The various shades blend so well.

[Renee']

I think I would vote for Jeans... today :)

I like the Multi-Jeans!

[Kathy Strand]

Edge water has always been a favorite of mine!

[Liz Awsumb]

The bean...I have just the shoes for it!

[Debra]

Kedzie catches my eye also, also liking The Skyway. They are all so pretty, it is hard to choose!

[Gabriele G]

My favorite is the Hawaii, with Irving Park coming in a close second.

[Pat]

I'm not sure what fascinates me more the name or the actual colorway; but I have to say my face would be Zombie BBQ!

[April]

Kedzie....and you know...as you have seen my purchases....I LOVE them ALL!!! This outlast is amazing!

[Linda]

Solemate in Jarod Flood's Grand Street Ink would make a great pair of socks.

[SusanB-knits]

[Ramona Edwards]

Cornelia is definitely eye-catching; neutrals with a splash of red and gold.

[Mary Anne Schierman]

I love Solemate in Watercolor. It would make a beautiful shawl!

[Donna]

Gorgeous colors!! Child's play, multi gold, multi jeans, rainbow, skyway, watercolor are just a few of my favorites.

[Lisa]

Oddly, I don't have a pair of socks in camouflage yet. Solid cookie secret looks nice too--and who can resist that name?

[Anne Cloward]

Zombie Barbeque followed by Watercolor. One is for the dignified elegant side of me, and the other for the wild, crazy, what a great name side of me!

[Stacey]

Mine right now has to be Shenanigans. The colors just jump out at me.

[Natalie G.]

Turtle Rodeo is a color I've been drooling over for a long time.

I am smitten by most every colorway. They are simply all combinations that speak to me. But i keep looking at Grand Street Ink and all the variety in this tonal. It is fascinating!

[Kate]

[Megan]

I like Campbell! Thanks for the opportunity to win!

For me, it has to be rainbow. How many times have we looked at a rainbow in wonder. Just makes me happy to think about knitting with it.

I'm at the coast (Newport, Oregon) and Baltic Sea is so close to the colors of the Pacific Ocean right now, I can't help but fall in love with it!
