What's In A Name?

Here is a sneak peek at my exclusive project for the beginner class at the Michigan Fiber Festival.
 This was a great little project to hook and I'm excited for my students because I know they will like to hook it too!  However, I have a little brain freeze when coming up with a name for the pattern, so here's where you can help!
Think of a name and leave it as a comment here on my blog.  The winner will be picked by my dear hubby and you will win 1/2 yard of the background wool as my "thank you" for the name suggestion.  The contest will end on July 25, 2012 so put your thinking caps on!
The background wool is one of my favorites.  A brown/green plaid with hints of red and blue.  Not too dark, not too light...just right!
 I will announce the winner on July 26th.
By the way, if you are interested in taking my beginner class (and hooking the sheep kit) at the Michigan Fiber Festival, click here  to sign up for the workshop.  You only have until August 1st to sign up (no registrations will be accepted after that time).
PS:  Submit as many names as you like.

    I'm going with Oxy, short for Oxford. Regardless of his name, he's awfully cute!

    'Poozer Sheep' long story. Our 1st Westie was Haley, but when she needed a grooming she looked like a sheep so we would jokingly call her 'sheep' and at some point one of the kids said 'poozer sheep' being silly. (no idea what it means)It caught on and she answered to both Haley and Poozer.
    Cute little rug, if I were close, I'd love to take your class.

    Made in Michigan or
    Michigan Beauty or
    Michigan Maiden
    It is a great pattern, fun to do but easy enough for a beginner. What size is it?

    kinda silly but how about "got wool?" it's just that cute look on her face like Who me? or how about Wool? Who me? that might be cuter. Good luck with your beginner class. Melody
