Happy Saturday!<\/p>\n

I had an interesting dyeing session yesterday, continuing my experimenting with some of the new dyes I got last week.\u00a0I mentioned last time that I’d been leaning more into a lot of solid dye jobs, this week I would do mostly multi-color combinations.<\/p>\n

As I normally do for multi-color yarns, I have rotated one skein of each pair, and then twisted the lower end of each skein so you can see the full range of colors within each Twinset.\u00a0 When I dye a Twinset, the two skeins are laid out side by side and each one is dyed the same way in fairly equal portions of each color.\u00a0 They aren’t identical in the same way commercial yarns are prepared with computerized precision, but each Twinset is a pair of fraternal twins.<\/p>\n

If knitting a project larger than socks with a Twinset, I recommend alternating between the balls every two or four rows\/rounds,\u00a0 to break up potential pooling and eliminate the obvious visual breaks that can sometimes occur if you knit all of one ball and then begin the next.<\/p>\n

These are all Phydlbitz Sock (75\/25 Superwash Corriedale\/Nylon, 430 yards each), and will be posted to the Blog Reader Specials page at $27.50 each after they’ve been reskeined and labeled.\u00a0 For Saturday and Sunday, you can take any two or more of this week’s collection (BRS25 – 191-214) at a Preview Pricing discount for $25.50 per skein.<\/p>\n

To claim the ones you want, just send me an email<\/strong><\/a> (ray@knitivity.com) with your selections.\u00a0 I will mark your selections off the Available Yarns<\/strong><\/span> table shown below, and send you a PayPal invoice.\u00a0 You don’t need a PayPal account; PayPal will process your credit\/debit card just fine and they never reveal to me your personal data.<\/p>\n

I expect to have these ready to ship on or about Wednesday.<\/p>\n

Available Yarns:\u00a0<\/strong><\/span>
\nRack 1 – <\/strong>191, 192<\/span><\/del>, 193, 194, 195, 196, <\/strong>197, 198<\/span><\/del>, <\/strong>199, 200<\/span><\/del>, 201, 202<\/strong><\/span>
