Happy Sunday!<\/p>\n

Per the 10-Day forecast, just a few more days into the lower 90s and then we’ll start seeing more autumn-like weather.\u00a0 Even now as I type this paragrapyh at 10:00a.m. it’s just barely 80\u00ba, for which I am quite thankful.\u00a0 \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

Last week I dyed a lot of darker colors, so this week I deliberately pulled out some fluorescent yellow, a chartreuse, and fuchsia, along with some other colors.\u00a0 These colors appear across several Twinsets this week.<\/p>\n

Many of the colors\/combinations seem obvious.\u00a0 One Twinset (#789-790) looked better wet — when I sealed it into a pouch, it reminded me of watermelon rinds cut into random chunks; it is actually a combination of spruce and chartreuse.\u00a0 Perhaps I just need to remember to eat so that all my yarns don’t remind me of edibles. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

At the end of the day’s dyeing I created a genuine DumpDye (#791-792)\u00a0 — using all the remaining red, fuchsia, brown, and gray into a combined vat that reminds me of dark red wine.\u00a0 Very rich, very beautiful.<\/p>\n

Twinset #771-772 is a two-color fade featuring fluorescent yellow and gold ochre.\u00a0 \u00a0Twinset #775-776 is a splattered combination of sky blue and pale gray, while #783-784 is a base of palest seafoam with a gradient fade of medium charcoal gray; #779-780 is a slightly deeper semi-solid in a similar seafoam green.<\/p>\n

Any of these will make wonderful socks, of course, but there are so many other projects that you can use Phydlbitz Sock for — shawls, scarves, baby blankets, etc.\u00a0 \u00a0Because I use a limited palette each week, many non-matching skeins can be combined for some amazing contrasts.<\/p>\n

Phydlbitz Sock<\/strong> is $27.50 per skein.\u00a0 For Sunday and Monday, you can claim any two or more skeins (matching or not) for $25.50 off at Preview Pricing.<\/p>\n

To claim the ones you want, just\u00a0send me an email<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0with your numbered requests.\u00a0 I\u2019ll mark them off the Available Yarns tally chart below and send out a PayPal invoice.<\/p>\n

I expect to have this week\u2019s Blog Reader Special Collection processed and ready to ship on or about Thursday.<\/p>\n
