Exactly 3 skeins of yarn (the recommended amount - yes, I got gauge first) and....
...THIS! Out of Yarn. Wah! I am decreasing for the shoulder of the second arm of the eyelet cardigan, and then just have the finishing/trim to do. If only I had knit on 6s instead of 7s, or not made the ribbing at the bottom of the sweater 4 1 /2" as recommended (3 or even 4 inches would have been fine, really).
And my car needed all sorts of repairs out of the blue when all that I took it in for was an oil change and its still not done 24 hours later, and its still 90 degrees out, and... WAAAHHHHHH!
Oh well, I guess I will have to go online and order up some more, and I might as well get yarn for the blue version of the Tartan Scarf from Rowan 42, and then I can get buttons, and .... (what else!)
OK. Back on task. Reality - I have too many projects that I am working on now. Here's whats cooking:
Stiches are being dropped on the Clapotis - very exciting!
Salina has been cast on (Chief approves) - its just too hot to knit with felted tweed now
The Jaywalker heel has been turned (Sock #1)
and the Central Park Hoodie has gone past the swatch, finally - I have about 2 inches of ribbing.
and I have a still lonely Roza's Sock #1 (its knit on 0s, so it takes a lot of motivation for me) and a start on the Soltice Slips from last month's Rockin Sock Club.
I guess I'll have to work on one of these in the meantime...I was just so close to being done!

"Stiches are being dropped on the Clapotis"---oh no! pick them up! quick, they're dropped! for the love of god, someone get those stiches, cindy dropped them all over the place!!! ahhhhh!! the humanity!
Ooh, your Clapo-tee is lovely! What yarn are you using?
Also, I know how you feel about the running out of the yarn. I have definitely made that face before.
Thanks! Its Sheep Shop Yarn Company Sheep 3 (Wool-Silk) - I'm really happy with it so far, its very soft but being 70% wool hopefully it will be warm as well!
Okay, I don't get the dropped stitches or the "0" needles or the other unbelievable knitting issues, but that picture of the beach- now THAT I get!
