Help! I'm knitting an afghan

and need one skein of Lion Brand's Homespun yarn in the color "Arcadian." Unfortunately, LB discontinued that color. If anyone here has a spare skein in their stash, I'd be willing to buy it from you plus postage. Thanks!Peggy in Anchorage, Alaska


What color is it? (Yes, I know, Arcadian, but what COLOR is it?) I've got some odd hanks of the stuff crawling around but none of it has the bellybands anymore except the bag of pink vari that I picked up at Tuesday Morning a few months back.

Lion Brand describes it as "Medium mossy greens highlighted with a touch of dark gold." Here's a link to a picture:

I posted earlier, I found I can order LB's discontinued items through e-yarn.com, but the postage for ONE skein is still going to be more than $5! I'm also going to check out the local stores to see if any of them just might have any left. I've also got other friends looking.Thanks,Peggy

Umm. Peggy? This has nothing to do with your yarn request.. but I noticed your after-sig:

account...

and wanted to tell you that all messages are coming through as such:

"Peggy"

and, I'm 'hoping' that IS a fake addy? JM2C Noreen back into self-induced lurkdom

Sorry, no gots none of that. Green isn't a color I much like even though I have a redhead to knit for, so I don't buy it.
