If that is unavoidable, beware of people like <a href=\"http:\/\/nownormaknits2.typepad.com\/now_norma_knits_2\/\">Norma<\/a> and <a href=\"http:\/\/nathaniaapple.typepad.com\/\">Nathania<\/a>. \ud83d\ude09<br \/>\nThey&#8217;re hosting a <a href=\"http:\/\/nathaniaapple.typepad.com\/musthavetoo\/\">Knitalong<\/a> for the &#8220;Must Have Cardi&#8221;.<br \/>\nFunnily enough, I pulled this pattern out just a few days ago, and was contemplating it. When I first got the pattern, it was too small for me, so I stashed it away in the &#8220;If I ever lose weight&#8221; category.<br \/>\nWell, I lost weight and now it will fit me.<br \/>\nHowever, I do not have any suitable yarn in the Stash. And I&#8217;m trying to knit up the stash. So I shouldn&#8217;t make it. I also have almost finished the ribby (Just the zipper now!), and have 2 more cardigans awaiting me in the stash. How many cardi&#8217;s are too many?<br \/>\nBut I haven&#8217;t done any cables in a while, and none of the planned cardi&#8217;s have cables.  But worsted yarn is difficult to find in Australia, and I would have to order something from the &#8216;net. I have no experience with Patons Classic Merino (never released here), and don&#8217;t know what would be a good substitute. Cascade 220? Elann Peruvian Wool? (The Mid Indigo Heather is nice).<br \/>\nI&#8217;m making myself dizzy with all the to-ing and fro-ing.<br \/>\nI actually laid awake last night thinking about it. I&#8217;m a sad, sad case.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Look what was in this mornings mail! How cute is this?
