No, it's not what you think. I ran out of yarn for the Brangelina hat, so I had to frog it.
I began another hat pattern that
said it only needed 70 yards. I knew I had more than 70 yards of this lucious merino-silk-alpaca blend, so... Yeah. I ran out again. I called my local yarn stores. No, they don't have it. So I went to Ravelry. The only person with the same color wanted to sell 20 balls for $85. Not that it's not a bad price--it's a great price. But that's way more yarn than I need to make one little hat. So I had to go with something contrasting. I found MamaJ who sold me one skein of Sand color out of her stash. Yeah. One. That's really all I need. I hope.
Sorry it's a little blurry. Musta been the anxiety.
