Sleeves and a Swatch

Since last week I have finished a sleeve and a half on the Ocean Glow. I also thought about my visit to the yarn shop. Linda quizzed me about the amount of yarn I needed for this sweater. I had taken six 50gm skeins of the magenta and was confident that this would be enough. The first skein ran out about the middle of the first sleeve cap so now, I am not so sure. 
I am pretty sure that Linda was trying to ask me if I was buying enough to complete the project. I seem to be having the problem of not quite enough to finish this year. There may be a trip to the shop next week.

I think this project is looking good.

Instead of concentrating entirely on the Ocean Glow, I had a craving to swatch today. I assembled skeins to make a Milo design by Berroco. I have 12 ounces of turquoise, 8 each of green and dark blue and about 8 of two different purples which I plan to alternate. The purples will be A, blue and green will be B and C and turquoise will be D. I like the way the colors play together so it is a go for the next project.
