However shall I choose?
There are too many funny and wonderful options!
I went through every single one of your suggestions and compiled a list of the possibilities.
Then I slept on it.
If you want the real truth, what really happened was that I went upstairs to label vast quantities of yarn while watching Project Runway, and then I fell asleep ten minutes later. (Don’t tell me who won. Seriously.)
But I do think it sounds better to say that I slept on this important decision.
When I woke up, I looked at my list again. Then I started Googling. I had to scratch off the names that I liked that were already taken by other people and books.
Then I bought a bunch of domain names.
Then I added a bunch of ridiculous stuff to this confirmation screen picture to amuse myself while I’m waiting for the coffee.
You wouldn’t begrudge an old Yarnista some Photoshop frivolity in the five minutes it takes for the coffee to brew, would you? I promise I will work every waking minute for the rest of the year.
I have it narrowed down to three different concepts. I will decide between them today! I will! I will!
Now I have to go finish labeling the vast quantity of yarn that is going to be shipped today.
Yarn is usually better when labeled, I’ve found. People prefer it that way.
I could just continue to sit here blathering on, or I could label yarn. You pick.
That’s what I thought, too.
See? Kindred spirits, you and me.

I am impressed that you’ve already narrowed it down to three! You had a myriad of wonderful suggestions. It will be fun to see the result! Thanks for letting us play.

I couldn’t even manage to read them all! THREE! Amazing. Some of them were so clever!

I must be the total opposite of everyone else here, including you, because this post left me with more questions than answers. Which yarn were you labelling? What domain names did you buy? What did you buy them for? Why is it when I read that original post about this contest, I get most excited when I see I want to Give You This and scroll down to see a cup of coffee? The yarn is nice, but I must be seriously lacking on caffiene, because I want that cup of coffee. Badly.
See? More blathering is required.
