I pattern called for 6 hanks of Cadena yarn. BULL-JINKIES!!
I was on skein 3 last Friday and trucking along nicely. The pattern is nice and fairly easy. A 24 stitch cable is a little challenging, but you get the hang of it and it's every 12th row, so not too bad. But like I said, I was on 3rd skein and barely had 20" on the scarf!! The scarf is suppose to be 71" long!
PANIC!!!
I rush over to my computer *stepping on the poor cat's tail - who insists on getting in the way everytime I walk somewhere in my house* boot up my computer and start searching Ravelry. What do I find?? NO ONE who used the recommended yarn make that scarf with the required number of skeins. Others used between 8 to 10 skeins. *sigh*
I went over the Knit Picks and ordered 4 more skeins and I'm praying that the skein colors will match - or that they'll be close enough not to notice. So, this project is on hold till the new yarn comes in.
What have I learned.... check Ravelry before starting any more projects!
