Wednesday will be another postal holiday, so I will aim to have this week’s collection ready to ship by Thursday.\u00a0 Supposedly tomorrow (Monday) my west-facing living room interior wall is supposed to be replaced (ongoing water damage from rains), and while I hope it is a one-day job I don’t expect miracles.\u00a0 All my yarn-working equipment and other furniture is on or near that same west-facing wall, so my living room will be a cramped jumble until it is all put back together.\u00a0 I will do my best to move the yarns out as quickly as possible.<\/p>\n
Onward to this week’s collection!<\/p>\n
These are all Phydlbitz Sock (75\/25 Superwash Corriedale\/Nylon, 430 yards each), all dyed as Twinsets.\u00a0 I dye Twinsets side-by-side so they are “twins” (sometimes identical but more often fraternal twins), but when I show them drying on the racks (as shown here), I rotate one, and then twist the bottom ends so display as much of the coloring in each Twinset.\u00a0 This allows you to see the color distribution on each one.<\/p>\n
All of this week’s yarns were dyed with at least two colors, but most have three and a couple have four colors applied.\u00a0 \u00a0Some of the colors were applied individually onto the yarns, while others were created by blending dyes on the yarn.<\/p>\n
One Twinset in particular (#984-985) is a blending of brown, spruce, and blended green, but one of the blues that I used to blend green didn’t dissolve fully until the yarns went into the steamer so there are amazing tiny little blue flecks all throughout the yarn.<\/p>\n
I didn’t use any straight purple dye this week; the apparent purple on Twinset #978-979 is from process of blending dyes onto the yarn salmon, blues, and red, with a light ‘smoosh’ to mix the colors into the yarn.<\/p>\n
