Yarn Blank?

I am not really sure why they call them yarn blanks. Shouldn't they be undyed yarn flats? Or something like that? After they are dyed, why are they still called blanks? Someone decided they would be called blanks even once they are dyed, and I do not know why. Anyway, below are some of my new yarn blanks, which have been dyed, so they ready to go. I had to start a rainbow one myself.

And since I am having so much fun making these not blank - I made some teal and black.

The blues were also a lot of fun to do. I just loved the different tones, and the way they combine together to make subtle changes between the blues.

I have listed all the sock blanks above at my Etsy Shop.
