I am NOT innumerate!

Just a little numerically challenged.

But I finally took a deep breath and did the math: my three skeins of Handmaiden Sea Silk won't be enough to complete the leaf and trellis rectangle on p. 54, because I am a Loose Knitter. Based on my progress to date, the center panel will require about 2.25 skeins, and the border will need roughly 1.75.

So I ordered another two skeins online. I'll use them for the border, in hopes that any lot differences in this hand-dyed yarn won't matter much.

Wow, I feel so much better. ;-}

At least you figured that out now instead of when you run out of the last skein and still haven't finished the border. I'm looking forward to seeing the finished product. Happy knitting.

Congratulations :) And what a lovely amount of Sea Silk to be playing with.
