Just returned from whirlwind vacation. There was a lot of driving time which means knitting time for me!
I picked up a copy of the summer issue of Interweave Knits Magazine and caught Amy Singer's (of KNITTY fame) article on the perils of shopping for yarn online. The article soon came to haunt me. I was just about finished with the Side-to-Side Ribbon Sweater (from Spring issue of IK) when I realized that I would not have enough of the KATIA SCALA yarn to finish the last 10 rows! I had tried to estimate the yardage I would need when I ordered from ELANN some time ago, but didn't do a good enough job. See those 10 lovely blue skeins below....well I needed 11! Now, Elann is out of the yarn, and I have a sweater that just needs a few more rows to finish. The deal was great on Elann, but I missed being able to run down to the lys and pick up another skein!
Now, I am in search of 1 skein of KATIA SCALA INDIGO YARN! I will buy outright, or can trade with a set of hand-made stitch markers! Anyone who can help - contact me!
