The ones at the end #83 and 84 are solo skeins, leftover from the custom job.\u00a0 These two were dyed earlier and started drying a day before so they&#8217;ve drawn up and look shorter, but they really are the same base yarn.<\/p>\n<p>Phydlbitz Sock (#49-72) is normally $27.50.\u00a0 The Merino\/Nylon DK is normally $28.00.\u00a0 \u00a0For Wednesday and Thursday, you can get 10% off your order when you claim any two or more, matching or not.<\/p>\n<p>To claim the ones you want, just <a href=\"mailto:ray@knitivity.com\"><strong>send me an email<\/strong><\/a> (ray@knitivity.com) with your numbered requests.<\/p>\n<p>Given the cold and damp of the season, drying and processing may take a little longer, but I expect to have these all ready to ship by Saturday or Monday.<\/p>\n<p>I plan to have another batch of yarns ready by Sunday.\u00a0 \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #008000;\"><strong>Available Yarns:\u00a0<\/strong><\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #008000;\"><strong>Rack 1 &#8211; 49, 50, 51, 52, 53, 54, 55, 56, <\/strong><del><span style=\"color: #cbcbcb;\">57, 58<\/span><\/del><strong>, 59, 60<\/strong><\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #008000;\"><strong>Rack 2 &#8211; <\/strong><del><span style=\"color: #cbcbcb;\">61, 62<\/span><\/del><strong>, 63, 64, <\/strong><del><span style=\"color: #cbcbcb;\">65, 66<\/span><\/del><strong>, <\/strong><del><span style=\"color: #cbcbcb;\">67, 68<\/span><\/del><strong>, 69, 70, 71, 72<\/strong><\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #008000;\"><strong>Rack 3 &#8211; 73, 74, 75, 76, <\/strong><del><span style=\"color: #cbcbcb;\">77, 78<\/span><\/del><strong>, 79, 80, 81, 82, 83, 84<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/knitivity.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/BRS25-28Jan-Rack1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-1379\" src=\"https:\/\/knitivity.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/BRS25-28Jan-Rack1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"797\" srcset=\"https:\/\/knitivity.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/BRS25-28Jan-Rack1.jpg 800w, https:\/\/knitivity.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/BRS25-28Jan-Rack1-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/knitivity.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/BRS25-28Jan-Rack1-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/knitivity.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/BRS25-28Jan-Rack1-768x765.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/knitivity.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/BRS25-28Jan-Rack2.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-1378\" src=\"https:\/\/knitivity.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/BRS25-28Jan-Rack2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"778\" srcset=\"https:\/\/knitivity.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/BRS25-28Jan-Rack2.jpg 800w, https:\/\/knitivity.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/BRS25-28Jan-Rack2-300x292.jpg 300w, https:\/\/knitivity.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/BRS25-28Jan-Rack2-768x747.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/knitivity.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/BRS25-28Jan-Rack3.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-1377\" src=\"https:\/\/knitivity.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/BRS25-28Jan-Rack3.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"765\" srcset=\"https:\/\/knitivity.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/BRS25-28Jan-Rack3.jpg 800w, https:\/\/knitivity.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/BRS25-28Jan-Rack3-300x287.jpg 300w, https:\/\/knitivity.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/BRS25-28Jan-Rack3-768x734.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Happy Wednesday!
