Pixie Purls Knitting & Spinning

Once I finish my sweaters...

If I finish the baby cardi AND the essential stripe, i am allowed to buy the yarn to make this:

I got the pattern for it some time ago. It takes 8 to 9 skeins. This stuff seems to run about $11 a skein so that means it would cost me about $100 after shipping to make this sweater. So I'm just dreaming today cause I know I should not be buying yarn.

Collinette Point 5 - Velvet Damson

Mmm... dream color! Hard to find too :(

Yes you can get Colinette for $10 a skein, here is how!
Cucumber Patch - $11.50 each
The Knittin - $9.95 each (£5.70 ) - Current Rate

Both of those require shipment to the US but say it will come in 14 days.

Where did you find point five for $11? It's like $21 around here! That seabreeze color is gorgeous!

Hey... couldn't you spin what you need? :)

I've ordered from Cucumber Patch before. I got my order from them quicker than some US vendors.

I love that cardi pattern. Do you know where I might be able to find it? The web page listed across the pic is not there anymore.
