We had a terrific little thunderstorm Friday night. One of the big trees in the back fell onto the neighbor&#8217;s property behind mine, on the next street over.\u00a0 The landlord was none too pleased, but he arranged for a crew to come, so now this morning I am being serenaded by the sound of chain saws and whatever they are doing back there.\u00a0 Their huge work truck and equipment trailer are just inches from my front porch where I normally hang and photograph the yarns.\u00a0 I hope to get pictures by this afternoon.\u00a0 Obviously this won&#8217;t go out until then, but I wanted to explain the delay from my normal routine.<\/p>\n<p>Later &#8211; Okay, the tree workers gone done and cleared the way, but ran into the rail on my ramp (oh joy &#8230;. not!), then I had to dance between sunlight and rain, but I finally got the pictures!<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>I had a wonderful time playing with color last night and trying a different technique for applying dye onto the yarn.\u00a0 I hope you agree that these will create some amazing socks for kids going back to school, or perhaps contributing to any of the amazing shawl, scarf, and accessory patterns now available.\u00a0 Imagine combining these bright multi-colored yarns with one or more solids for textured stripes or two-stranded colorwork in your wardrobe accessories!<\/p>\n<p>All of these are Phydlbitz Sock 2.0 (75\/25 SW Merino\/Nylon, 430+ yards), and are normally $27.50 each.\u00a0 For Sunday and Monday, however, visitors are invited to claim any two or more from this new collection (BRS25 &#8211; #557 &#8211; 580)\u00a0 for just $26.00 each.<\/p>\n<p>To claim the ones you want, <a href=\"mailto:ray@knitivity.com\"><strong>send me an email<\/strong><\/a> with your numbered requests.\u00a0 I&#8217;ll send a PayPal invoice, but if you don&#8217;t have a PayPal account you can still pay with your credit or debit card, no problem.\u00a0 Please do ensure that PayPal has your correct shipping address.
