Remember my Carolyn sweater well.. can you believe my surprise when 1 1/2 rows from the end on the front neck band I run out of yarn. How is this possible? I had bought the amounts called for in my pattern, and to my great horror if that was not bad enough the on line store I had purchased the yarn from no longer carried that colour they were sold out and had no idea if they would carry that colour again. Has that ever happened to anyone? This is a first for me and I must say I don't like the feeling of panic one bit. Needless I had to spend the better part of a week looking for a match and found one with a very slight colour difference and I pulled back the half row so I don't think anyone will notice. (I hope)The buttons really make this sweater I hope my daughter will like it.
