No cards to share

So its nearly the end of January and would you believe I haven't made any cards yet this year.  I've been too busy working and knitting!  I found some wool my mum had purchased years ago and found a pattern that's perfect BUT I'm just starting on the first sleeve, having finished the back and front, to find that I don't think I'll have enough wool and they don't make this wool anymore!  My brain is in overdrive trying to find ways around this without having to rip the whole thing.  They do make the wool but in a heavier weight so I might end up with chunky sleeves. Or I might just rip it up and start again - WHAT A SHAME!
