Starting a new month!<\/p>\n

I put in an order for new yarn on Wednesday.\u00a0 Normally when I order on a Wednesday, my supplier is able to get yarns to me on Saturday.\u00a0 \u00a0I’ve checked my tracking number and UPS tells me it is scheduled for delivery on Wednesday coming.\u00a0 YIKES!\u00a0 That’s a long time for me to be without my regular yarns.<\/p>\n

But nevermind — I found six undyed skeins of BFL sport (~330 yards) that I had prepared several years ago with yarn from a supplier no longer in business.\u00a0 \u00a0Some were dip-dyed as solids, others were dry-on-wet dyed (dry dye powder on acid-wet yarns).\u00a0 \u00a0As expected, the dry-on-wet dyes migrated around in the steamer after I’d sealed the pouches.\u00a0 This always creates wonderful surprises, especially when I spread different dye colors around the yarns and allow those colors to mix in unexpected ways.<\/p>\n

BRS24 – #645 and 648 were both dip-dyed in a mix of navy and purple mixed, but then topped with a bit of navy scattered randomly.\u00a0 Then #643 was dip-dyed in the run off from 645 and 648 combined; #647 is a dry-on-wet with yellow and brown randomly laid, and the run off became the dip-dye base for #644, over which I sprinkled both red and pumpkin orange.\u00a0 Personally, I think #644 and 647 will look amazing as two-tone stripes in a basic scarf or cowl.<\/p>\n

Because my yarn supply is short this week I’m going to combine this week’s Preview Pricing with a deal on previously posted Blog Reader Specials<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n

BRS24 – #643 – 648 are all BFL sport (~330 yards) and are $26.00 each.\u00a0 For now through Thursday, all yarns will be invoiced at 15% discount.<\/p>\n

To claim the ones you want, just send me an email<\/strong> with your selections, and be sure to check the Blog Reader Specials page<\/strong><\/a> as well to combine your discount.<\/p>\n

Usually once or twice a year, someone will share a picture of something they have created using Knitivity yarns.\u00a0 I would very much like to be able to showcase customer projects, either as occasional Blog posts or a separate Customer Gallery, but definitely more than just once or twice a year.\u00a0 If this is something you would like to see, please let me know.\u00a0 I’ve been dyeing yarn 18 years now and have precious few customer photographs; I started officially on October 1, 2006, but I actually began several months before.<\/p>\n

This is also a good time to remind that while I normally dye Twinsets, I can do custom jobs if you can tell me the yarn type you want, how much you need, and how soon you’ll need it.\u00a0 I don’t keep a large inventory of assorted yarns but I can get most of the common yarn bases without too much problem.<\/p>\n

I am looking forward to getting more yarn this week as I have some ideas for different ways to do things, if the weather cooperates.\u00a0 And that’s all I’m going to say about that!\u00a0 \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
