Happy Saturday!<\/p>\n There’s a little chill in the air this weekend.\u00a0 Nice!<\/p>\n I was just outside getting pictures.\u00a0 \u00a0I felt a drop.\u00a0 Then a couple more.\u00a0 And more.\u00a0 \u00a0I had to move quickly to get it done, and then whisk the yarns into the fan room to finish.\u00a0 But now pictures are taken and the yarns are safe from rain.\u00a0 Not sure how much rain we will actually get later on, but better safe than sorry.\u00a0 \u00a0\ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n Anyway, here are this week’s offerings, mostly in the darker ranges this time.\u00a0 There were several Twinsets that suggested names that were surprisingly not food-related!\u00a0 \u00a0A couple of them reminded me\u00a0 of things like Shadows in the Forest or Waves on the Sand.\u00a0 As always, yarns look different between wet and dry.\u00a0 \u00a0But even so, I think there is something for everyone this week.\u00a0 \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n Since I don’t work with standardized color recipes too often, I also no longer try to name the yarns.\u00a0 But, just for fun, what you you name some of these colorways?<\/p>\n Several of this week’s Twinsets were dyed at 72-inch centers, like #854-855,\u00a0 866-867, and 870-871, to point out a few.\u00a0 \u00a0That is,\u00a0 each hank is 2-yards around, or about 1 yard long when laid flat for dyeing.\u00a0 Sometimes I will leave them laid out and dye from one end to the other.<\/p>\n Other times, I will dye the centers, move those centers to the ends, and then dye a new center, so that the color-changes occur at roughly 36 inches rather than 72\u00a0 inches.\u00a0 Good examples of this are Twinsets #864-865 and 870-871.\u00a0 These are all approximations, but can give a good idea how the colors will appear in knitting, and\u00a0 will change depending on your knitting.\u00a0 Socks are great on Size 1 or 2 needles, but you can use Size 5 or 6 to knit lighter shawls on Phydlbitz, producing larger stitches and color changes appearing closer in the knitted fabric.<\/p>\n These are all\u00a0 Phydlbitz Sock, normally $27.50 each.\u00a0 For Saturday and Sunday, you can claim any two or more of this new collection (BRS24 – #854 – 877) for $25.50 each.<\/p>\n Edit: This discount is extended through Monday.<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n To claim the ones you want, just send me an email<\/strong><\/a> with your requests.\u00a0 I’ll mark your selections from the Available Yarns tally chart below and send you a PayPal invoice.\u00a0 On payment, I will print your shipping label so it is ready when the yarns are ready to ship, and you will get an email notice with your postal tracking number.\u00a0 When the mail carrier picks up packages, I nearly always announce it on Facebook so customers can start tracking their packages.<\/p>\n A friend on Facebook was asking about yarns to the U.K.\u00a0 \u00a0I do ship internationally, although the rates have gone up (again!) so an international package costs $37.50 to ship.\u00a0 BUT, it’s basically a flat-rate up to a certain limit, and will cover for one skein or up to six in a single soft package.\u00a0 If you have friends who want to try my yarns, it is better to make a package to a single address.<\/p>\n I expect this week’s collection to be ready to ship on Wednesday or Thursday.<\/p>\n Available Yarns:<\/strong><\/span> Edit to add: I’ve just posted pictures of the unclaimed yarns over on the Blog Reader Specials page, but here is a group shot of all of them. Happy Saturday! There’s a little chill in the air this weekend.\u00a0 Nice!
