Happy Halloween

Knitivity Posted on 31 October 2016 by Knitterman1 November 2016

I am adding TWO MORE racks that can be selected for the ongoing End-of-Month / Trick-or-Treat discount special over on the Blog Reader Specials page!  (And the sale is extended one more day because I’m adding more yarns to the selections.)

The second rack is still steaming, but here’s the first rack.   As with all the Blog Reader Specials yarns, select any two yarns (or Knitivi-TEEs) and get 30% off your entire order!

This first rack is 4 Primo Lace and 8 Phydlbitz Sock and mostly are Twinsets.   The second rack is entirely singles, and I will post that as soon as it is available. and is shown down below

ALL the yarns not claimed below have now been posted to the Blog Reader Specials page — click through to see which ones remain available at the time of your visit.

I intended to put these in the same order as the photo above (i.e., lace first, then sock) but I got disoriented along the way and it came out the other way.   But the yarn is still good!  🙂 brs16-31oct-rack1

Too Much Yarn!

Knitivity Posted on 26 October 2016 by Knitterman26 October 2016

I was going to do a new photo shoot of all the assorted Twinsets and possible color combinations.  But the BRS pictures have already been posted and I didn’t want to re-do all of those.   So, I made a … Continue reading →

And now they’re loaded, ready to ship!

Knitivity Posted on 18 October 2016 by Knitterman18 October 2016

All of the unclaimed Blog Reader Specials from  yesterday’s post are now posted over on the Blog Reader Specials page, ready for you to claim; click through to see which ones remain available for you.   These are all 100% Superwash Merino Fingering, 420 yards apiece.

These are the group shots after reskeining.  #650 and #651 should have come into the 2nd photo, but there were 14 skeins to shoot, so I divided them into groups of 7 to have fairly equal images.  🙂

An Even Two Dozen … Plus More!

Knitivity Posted on 17 October 2016 by Knitterman18 October 2016

I got hung up over the weekend, but got a few goodies done, and this morning I finished all the other goodies I’d intended to do yesterday.

To claim any of the yarns shown here before Wednesday, just email me and tell me which ones you want, and mention Early Bird Pricing.  As soon as these are ready for shipping or posting to the BRS page, the early bird pricing disappears.

First up:  Christmas Sparkle Sock yarn.   These are done on Sparkle Sock (92% SWMerino/8% Lurex), which is normally $29.00;  these will be split into four sets.   Each set will have 200 yards Red and 200 yards Green, for a total of 400 yards for $30.00.   These will be split and packed and ready to ship on Wednesday, but if you claim your set(s) before the end of Tuesday, you can have a set for $28.00 apiece.    (Note: there is also one single Sparkle Sock shown in the last rack below:  #661.)

3 claimed, only 1 set  remaining

This morning I did almost 2 dozen skeins of Superwash Merino Fingering, 420 yards.  In this first batch there are three Twinsets  (638-639,  640-641, 642-643), and the rest are all singles. The SWMerino Fingering is normally $26.00 — claim yours before the end of Tuesday and have each for $23.00.

Note: there was some dye migration/spotting on 640-641 … I think I left a drop of the blue where I should not have.  🙁

All unclaimed have been posted to the Blog Reader Specials page; preview pricing period is ended.

And for the next bunch, I went back to one of my popular regular colorway sets:  “Luscious” (650 & 651), “Sensatorium” (652 & 653), and “After Hours” (654 & 655); these weren’t dyed as Twinsets (i.e., not in the same pouch together), but all with the same dye batches.  On all of these, the blackened red and the blackened blue are deliberately spotty; the original colorway “After Hours” was intended to be reminiscent of the reflected neon signs in a rainy alley way after the city closes for the night.  All the rest were done as singles, just using up the remaining dyes of that set.   These are each $26.00 also, and the same preview pricing applies: — claim yours before the end of Tuesday and have each for $23.00.

The last skein shown, #661, is the lone Sparkle Sock, done up with a random mix of colors that seemed to go together — this skein will knit up into some lovely spiral striping socks; normally $29.00, claim it before the end of Tuesday for $26.00.

Tomorrow I will be preparing all these yarns for shipping and/or posting to the BRS page on Wednesday, and later Wednesday I will be doing another batch of assorted sock yarns.  🙂
