Take a look at what is the newest yarn line at The Verdant Gryphon. Gryphon is the designer and color artist behind this luxury yarn. Unbelievable colors, textures and shine. You have got to see this for yourself. She has really got a great sense of humor when it comes to the creativity in her yarn naming. ~Be prepared to have your credit cards out and ready to purchase~

Hit Me With Your Pet Shark
Unapologetically flaming orange! Semi-solid, with the colours of an intense sunset - bright golden orange ranging to deep burnt orange.
Take a look at the suddle changes in hues as the color transends from one shade to another. The shine and twist of this luxury yarn is enough to make me purchase one in every color! When you have the skein in your hands you will notice two things. One, the feel of the fibers are 'next-to-skin soft.' Second, color changes are so amazing that you really are cheated at only having pictures to look at. All of you, my readers, should have a skein of this yarn just to see its color.

So many tempting yarn bases, so many gorgeous colors! My first choice is Mondegreen in the Dirty Deeds Done With Sheep colorway.
I really love Bugga in Rose Curculio!
I really like There's a Wino Down the Road....not only is it a gorgeous shade of blue but I think they were referring to me. ;)
Mondegraan in Hold me closer tie me down sir
At this moment there is no question in my mind: I want to make the shawl "Passion Flowers" from Cephalopodyarns in Mithril Dolce Far Niente. That will be so gorgeous. I can hardly wait (I have already spent my yarn allotment for September).
Thank you for continuing to tempt and enable.

I love Eidos in the medusa colourway. I've always wanted to try a "gryphon" yarn but always seem to miss the updates.
I like the Mondegreen in The Age of Asparagus.
I also like the Mondegreen, but in seasick asian man.
Wow I would love that orange. It has been my favorite color for the last few months. Just can't get enough of it.
Mondegreen in There's a Wino Down the Street, please! Mmmm, baby camel fiber.
Ack, that should have been linked to my Blogger account so you can check that I'm a follower. :)
I'll take any Mondegreen that I can get!!!
So want to try that Seasick Asian Man Mondegreen!! And I just became a follower! Can't wait to see what happens here. VG sent me :)
I love all her Yarn and I have most of it too! My favorite is Traveller in Bucharest.
*cackle* I love those names! :D I love their yarn, though I haven't purchased any since they split. I'm a big fan of the Bugga base!
Love the Eidos -Parzival.
I think Grey Hairstreak is gorgeous, although it's so hard to pick just one!
I love both the name and the wonderful purple color of Dirty Deeds Done with Sheep in the Mondegreen base.
I would love to try the Mondegreen base in the colorway Age of Asparagus.
Love the Traveller
The Ants are my Friends in Mondegreen; love the bugga base. rav - mprsdrose.
I've coveted mithril lace yarn for ages. But BFL, silk and baby camel.. I think Mondegreen must be the best base ever. I'm all autumny, so the 'hold me close, tie me down, sir' should fall into my shopping cart.
The Mondegreen in the Bathroom to the left colorway
Definitely, There's a Wino Down the Road...
I love seasick asian man.... But the naming doesnt make me imagine red colour:p
Bugga Juniper Hairstreak please :)
I want the "The ants are my friends" but it's sold out! I may have to go with that orange though...
