Ok, here's the skinny:
I have 525 yards of turquoise soy silk. And some contrasting ribbony fun yarn. My pattern calls for this:
http://www.yarnmarket.com/yarn/Artyarns_Free-Silk_Top_with_Fur_Trim_Free-1756.html
which is 652 yards. So I'm a bit over 100 yards short.
This is what I've done so far:
I was thinking if I frogged it, I could redo the lace pattern in the novelty yarn. I do worry that it wouldn't show up very well though. My other option is to hope it comes out (I'm short waisted, so I measured myself and can fake it by shortening it a bit), or to search and phone call anyone carrying phoenix textiles soy silk turquoise in my dye lot. WWFSMD?
Any advice is appreciated!
oh, I should mention that the photo looks weird because I'm on circ needles but knitting flat (the back) and halfway through a purl row. Sorry!
And excuse the jammies.
