Well the Karabella Zodiac yarn I ordered to complete the amount of yarn I needed came in yesterday! I apprehensively opened the package hoping against hope that it would match or at least be close enough to be practically un-noticeable. It was perfect, I was very relieved to say the least, just for the anyhow of it I checked the lot number. IT WAS THE SAME LOT........WHAT ARE THE CHANCES!!!!!I ordered off the internet from a random sight and got the same lot! I think my friends in the knitting realm will rejoice with me.
I feel like getting slightly pentacostal about this. Excuse me while I go gaze in amazement and awe at that yarn.

Miss me?
Well, I have been on a spiritual journey, a trek if you will, for enlightenment about the meaning of life..............................nah, I'm not buying it either. Actually I'm just lazy.
Enough about me, I have been knitting but not anything I really felt like posting.
So now though I feel like seriously b......g bout,dye lots. I was dying for this Karabella Zodiac, 100%
mercerized, soft pink, slight sheen.Didn't buy enough, am finding that no one in the world carries this yarn. Actually I have finally found some but not until I almost lost my mind. Obviously it will not be the same lot but I am hoping for a decent match. Why can't just dye millions in the same lot and be done with it?
I have also been wanting to make the "Nothing But A T-shirt" pattern. Who could possibly mess that up? Me that's who. Although my LYS owner assure me that row guage didn't really matter as long as I had stitch gauge. When it came time to start the armholes the poor shirt was around the area of my nursing apparataus(however you spell it). The armholes would have enveloped my shoulders. I a retiring to nurse my wounds..hopefully I'll be back before I lose my mind entirely.
