"Mum's the word" is the perfect name for that yummy new yarn shade. To me it looks like various shades of the mum's that my mom used to buy in pots and arrange outside the front door.

hi, i think the perfect name would be....."just before dawn" Think of those early mornings when you're out lambing, really tired, can't believe you've been up all night and things are finally settling down, you're more than ready to go hit the hay, and you look at the sky, and see those colors and say, wow, it's just before dawn...coffee or bed?

Wisteria because the purples remind me of the wisteria we had in our backyard.

Or... how about Morning Glory. This is for the actual morning glory that I had in my backyard growing up and the fact that it looks like a morning sunrise.

Either way it looks wonderful!
