Good news!

Re the yarn shortage for the Suspender Cardigan: Ravelry to the rescue! Despite the quirky search feature in their yarn section (you can enter the lot number as a search criteria, but it doesn't seem to do anything), I found some knitters with matching yarn. GardeningWitch is sending me a skein (all the way from the UK!), and if that is not enough, I have an offer of a half-skein from LauraB69. Aren't knitters grand?

Meanwhile, I have been cowling away - four are completed, using three different patterns. I will post pictures and details once the buttons are added.

And the baby cable socks are progressing nicely.

And if that were not enough, I started a Gridded Kitchen Towel. I guess I am in the mood to bust some cotton stash.

Glad you got some yarn.

Cowls seem to be the hot thing - I'm about to start one after my housework is done.

Re: the little red-head in the Debbie Bliss A-line cardi a couple of posts back- both the toddler and the sweater are adorable. Glad that you found the yarn- Ravelry is a great tool, if I can just be more disciplined when I'm on it.
