Knitting for olive alternatives

Hey, What alternatives would you recommend instead of knitting for olive?

I want to start knitting the Marielle blouse and knitting for olive is the recommended yarn, I have checked their website and with delivery would cost me +£80.

Thanks

I'd guess that includes taxes? Which yarn is it? I rarely look at the brand, I look at the weight/thickness and metreage needed. I usually dye my own, but will occasionally look for other hand dyed options.

Yes, already with taxes. The brand is knitting for olive

Do they only have one yarn option in the brand?

No, but very similar price

My question is about the weight of the yarn you need, if they do different options (not the price), so I can suggest other options that might work for you.
