Maybe it just isn't meant to be

So last Thursday I went to a LYS to look at yarn options for Petal. I found a great Cascade 220 Quattro (#9433 to be exact) but they didn't have enough skeins. The salesperson told me they would get a shipment in on Friday or Sat. No problem but I really wanted to start the sweater. I called other LYS and none nearby stocked the yarn. So Sat AM I go to get the yarn and am told that the shipment was held back and it should be in on Monday. I had stated some socks to keep me busy so I thought I could wait. All I have been thinking about is that color. I looked for other options but nothing struck me like that. I am crossing my fingers that the yarn will be in when I get there after work today.

You may remember the Thorn and Thistle Cardigan I knit last year. It is yet another in a line of sweaters that are too short. I have worn it once. So this morning I picked up stitches along the bottom and and going to knit more length, either ribbing or stockinette with some eyelet accents. If that doesn't help, it may be heading to the frog pile.
