..and it could be the inspiration for a new colorway! You will get a free skein of the new colorway, too! Here's how it will work:
I want you to send me your beautiful photographs, I'm looking for content and color in the photo, it doesn't have to be a perfect photo technically, you don't have to be a great photographer for this contest! We here at All For Love Of Yarn will narrow the photos down to the 5 that I think I can produce the most beautiful yarn colorway. Then it is up to you to vote on which one you like the best and that will be turned into yarn, on the base of my choice, that will work best for the colorway. The winner of the favorite photo will win 1 full skein (around 400 yards, either fingering or sport weight) of yarn in the new colorway!
Rules:
Submission of photos:
November 1st through November 15th. Submissions before and after these dates will not be accepted.
Photo Specifications:
One entry/photo per person.
It might be posted on my blog, so don't send anything you don't want the public to see.

I have all rights to accept or not accept any photo for any reason without explanation.

Send photos to: allforloveofyarn@gmail.com
Include with your email a name I can use on my blog to give you credit for the photo.

I will dye the yarn inspired by the winning photograph and the winner will receive one skein at the beginning of December, sometime before the 15th of the month. It will be a fingering/sock weight in either hand painted variegated, kettle dyed variegated, solid, or semi-solid, around 400 yards, my choice.

October Top 5 Photos...
...are up for you to vote on! Thank you to all of you for entering your photographs. I really appreciate the inspiration and enjoy the challenge of dyeing yarn and fiber to match a photo.
Autumn Star Light
Submitted by: Camille
I'm envisioning this on silk to capture the luminosity of the photo with gold as the main color accented with deep blue violet, purple, magenta and burgundy.
Autumn in Vegas
Submitted by: Allison
There were a few Halloween themed photos this month and I wanted to include at least one of them and this was the favorite. It is very captivating and I think it will produce a menagerie of color on some yarn.
Pink Petals
Submitted by: Pauline
This flower is just simply beautiful! I see it kettle dyed on some luscious yarn in a pale pink, I can just feel the smooth petals looking at it!
Door Pink
Submitted by: Jessy Austin
This pink door in the middle no where is captivating and it makes me wonder what awaits our imagination on the other side. I think I may focus on the door if I dye this, pretty bright pink and white.
Galway of Houses
Submitted by: Maeve
The serenity of water is very intriguing; I think a semi -solid blue would be gorgeous on a silk blend to capture the luminous water.
