I'm an idiot. I've already posted this on the Livejournal Knitting Group but....
On a whim, I picked up some Brown Sheep Cotton Fleece from my stash and started knitting away on the fronts and the sleeves of the Bobble Cardigan (see entrys below). Because it was a fairly dark color, I wasn't desperately concerned about the fact that I needed to buy a few more skeins of yarn, figuring the dye lot couldn't be THAT far off (you know where this is going, right?!?). Yeah so it was. After finishing up the front and 1/2 of two sleeves, I went to add the new skein and it hit me like a ton of bricks. I don't even think ripping and re-knitting strategic pieces would make this work.
So I'm sending this SOS message -
I desperately seeking 3 skeins (or less - whatever you might have) of Brown Sheep Cotton Fleece, Color CW-825 Truffle, Dye Lot #010. If you think you might have some in your stash, I will trade you the 3 balls I have in Dye Lot #014, and throw some extra special stuff in there for your trouble.
Please pass this on if you know of anyone who can help. My email is delia dot ann at gmail dot com.
Thanks all.

Alas!!! :( Dark colors are the worst for dye lot woes, actually... I don't have any Cotton Fleece in that color. Um, I wonder if this is the sort of thing you post to the Good Yarn Karma blog?
