With the deadline (June 30) quickly approaching, I’m feeling confident I can make it.
Yesterday about this time I think I had 96 rows remaining. This photo was taken an hour or so ago. Right now I have 46 rows left. By the time I go to bed tonight, I hope to have about 25 rows left.
The requirement for my challenge is to knit at least 1,000 yards. So far, I’ve used two full skeins (one of the lighter green and one of the ecru) of Tosh Merino Light, at 420 per skein so that’s 840 yards. I used about 45 yards of the dark green, maybe 30 yards of the second skein of ecru so that’s 925 yards (if the math in my head is correct. And, without weighing the skein, I’ve probably used about 150 yards of a second skein of the green so, I’ve already used over 1,000 yards. I could stop now and bind off if I had to but .. I don’t have to so I’ll finish according to the pattern.

That will be so wonderful, and much faster than you predicted, too. I went online last night and discovered I already missed the purchase week for July, so I’ll have to wait until August. I did find some more fabrics to add to these that will be really nice, if they are still there. If not, something else will be.
