Excitement all round in Casa Del Random today \ud83d\ude42<br \/>\nIn other news, I decided on Colour #90 for my Butterfly, and I went ahead and ordered it. I chose a UK site, as the total came to $AU150, and from a US site it would have come to around $AU180.<br \/>\nI nearly had a heart attack when I hit the order button. I have <i>never<\/i> spent $150 on a project before. However, I was pleased with my colour choice, and was proud that I had searched about and found the best price.<br \/>\nThen I got an email this evening to tell me that the website was wrong, and they only had 9 balls in stock. I need 14. Would I like to choose another colour?<br \/>\nNo, I would not.<br \/>\nIt took me a week to decide on #90, thankyouverymuch. So I agonised, checked out all the other sites, tried to pick another colour, and couldn&#8217;t. I have decided to take the 9 balls they have in stock (they aren&#8217;t getting anymore) and then I will have to get 5 balls from somewhere else. I&#8217;m hoping that the variegation in the Kureyon will hide any differences in the dyelots that may occur. Please reassure me!! Please! \ud83d\ude42<br \/>\nLovely to see so many beautiful skies out there, too! It tickles me to see that I may be a world away, but the sky is still the same \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Look Ma, Knitting! Not an awful lot, I&#8217;m afraid.
