The Life of a Showgirl Yarn; Dyed to Order Skeins
If you are looking at this listing you've heard the announcement made just a few days ago about the upcoming 12th Taylor Swift album, Life of a Showgirl, and you're ready for the new era to begin! While we all wait for October 3rd to roll around, and before you all are tired of the gorgeous color palette that she used for her album cover, why not knit something inspired by the upcoming album cover???
As soon as I saw the palette for the album I began plotting out a new color way that would capture the feeling of the imagery, and I'm pretty pleased with how it turned out!
I've dyed up a bunch of full skeins plus mini skeins of contrast, as well as full skeins of DK weight in both colors. All the items in this listing are ready to ship, and if you get here and what you want shows as sold out, you can jump to the dyed to order listing and I'll get your order dyed up and shipped asap!
These are all DYED TO ORDER full skeins of the speckled OR orange solid color and will ship in 7-10 business days of order being placed
