Too Short (And I'm Not Talking About the Rapper)

So I have been plugging away at my Summertime Socks while watching my ball of yarn dwindle. Then it happened. About an inch from starting the toe decreases I ran out of yarn. Of course Knitpicks has discontinued this colorway. I have sent a message to someone on Ravelry who has this yarn listed as willing to sell/trade but I have not heard back yet. If I can't get more I will have to improvise something.


I was so looking forward to having a FO since I have not had one since June. Oh well. Now I am swatching for another project for Clark. I have never swatched before and it is boring but since I am adjusting the size I have to do it. Until next time ....

Bummer! Good luck finding more yarn.

Total Bummer! A little hint for next time, once you finish the first sock weigh it and then weigh the ball of yarn. If the ball weighs more than the sock then you will have enough yarn for the second one. If not well....time to find more yarn, or another project. Hope you are able to get more yarn for this one though.
