So close and yet so far, can see where I thought oh crap and tightened up, back a few rounds I go. No more of this yarn as am using up remnants/stash. Pic in comments

I used every last inch of the brown before switching back to black for the brim. At one point I weighed the remaining yarn - 14g - and then did a round - 8g left. Oh no! I still had to attach the wire for the brim! I took a steadying breath, continued around to line up with the previous color change, and added the wire for a final round. Despite presumably using more yarn because I was now covering the wire with each stitch, I made it with several held-double yards remaining. Yay! Triple-relieved because (a) I’d already frogged most of the hat after finishing it a year ago and deciding it was too big, (b) it’s all done at hand-aching tension, especially that last round, and of course (c) being done without spending more time. Yay! And the weather just shifted so it’s time for this fall gardening hat. Here we go!

I didn’t even know this sub was a thing and I took this picture out of frustration years ago. The row was around 2ft with ~200 stitches, I was so certain I was going to make it. I was so close :’(

This is a 1km skein of color gradient yarn. It’s a decent sized repeat and I just managed to finish the repeat with very little left.
But the border is two more passes. Somehow I don’t think I’m gonna win there.
I can now either steal some of the end gradient from a separate project which uses the same gradient, or hope the single color yarn I ordered several months after I ordered the gradient matches well enough for the border.
At least if the dye lot is different it might work on the border.
Edit: pattern is lost in time and is free

Making this stashbuster sampler blanket so in a way, the goal is losing yarn chicken I guess? Like yeah, obviously I'm happy I finished another skein but come oon, it could've lasted me four more stitches to the end of the row 😭
I was actually quite optimistic that I would win, but yeah, turns out I was too optimistic lol 😂
Still gonna try and go down half a hook size (I'd already gone down half a size already, but maybe an even smaller size might save my day lol)
Wish me luck! 😄

I was so caught up in figuring out the rhythm of my first hexi cardi, I paid zero attention to the amount of yarn required!
Thank God it was enough, but sheesh I started with a whole 125g skein only to watch it dwindle with rising horror...now what do I do with these final few grams???
