Ready Player One
The Great Reads Series are colorways inspired by a much-loved book that I just couldn't put down. With 32 stripes, I hope that Ready Player One will be a sock you just can't stop knitting!

Haven't read the book? Here is a synopsis from Wikipedia:
Ready Player One is a 2011 science fiction novel, and the debut novel of American author Ernest Cline. The story, set in a dystopia in 2044, follows protagonist Wade Watts on his search for an Easter egg in a worldwide virtual reality game, the discovery of which will lead him to inherit the game creator's fortune.
I highly recommend adding Ready Player One to your reading and knitting queue!
Every skein is a "Must Match" skein meaning you will receive two perfectly matched half skeins twisted together. Each half skein starts and stops in the exact same place in the color sequence!
