When Will I Learn?

It not he first time, and it likely won't be the last. I'm short on yardage. Not a little bit. A lot. A third of a sweater worth, to be more specific.

My common senses failed me at the time I purchased this yarn. I clearly recall seeing the yarn, thinking it would make a great sweater, and grabbing four hanks- because it's sock yarn, and sock yarn has roughly 400yds per hank; 1200yds, give or take, should be plenty to get me through a sweater. And, it totally would have. Except, the hanks only have 220yds. DOH! Never fear, Windy Knitty came to my rescue, and forward progress is in my immediate future. I used the first four hanks for the sweater fronts and sleeves. And, I'm using the new hanks to make up the back. Keep your fingers crossed for me that I don't end up with an oddly color blocked cardigan. Some day, I will learn, obviously, that day has not yet come.

One final note before I go. If you're reading this post in a browser, you may have noticed some housekeeping and remodeling. As we creep towards the new year, I've spent a lot of time thinking about the direction I want to take this blog. Retrospectively, I feel "Will Knit for Food" too drastically limits the scope of things I want to continue posting here. So, I'm beginning to transition the site from its former domain (www.willknitforfood.com) to its new domain (www.tresbienensemble.com). I'm not entirely sure how smoothly this process is going to go. I was hoping the transfer of subscribers between domains would be relatively seamless; however, Support has informed me that I am unable to transfer my subscriptions between sites. I apologize in advance for any interruptions or glitches during the move. The new domain is live, so please feel free to update your RSS feed in order to side-step any discontinuity. I really appreciate each of you who makes a visit to my little space and hope you'll make the move with me.
