Sort of Unrelated, But I Need Your Help!

Y'all, it's the ultimate knitting nightmare. I ran out of yarn on a project with a fairly substantial amount to go, and discovered yesterday that it's been discontinued. *SOB* The project is Lucky from Stitch n' Bitch Nation, and the yarn is Berroco Softwist Bulky in color #7450-Violet. Here's what I have done so far:

The back and the right front, and I'm almost done with the left front. I still have the sleeves and the neckband/ties and the seaming to do. If anyone has any of this yarn, please let me know, stat, and I will be more than happy to pay you for it, pay for the shipping, and send you goodies and love as well. I just bought two skeins on eBay, but it won't be enough to finish the whole thing.

Any and all help, advice, ideas, suggestions and whatnot are greatly appreciated. I'm going to call around to all my LYS's today and see if they have any, but who knows what will happen there. You all just may be my last hope...

Checked my LYS for ya, but no luck, sorry! It is such a beautiful sweater - I hope you get the yarn that you need!

You should post on the knittersreview.com forum. There is a section for people seeking yarn, and I think they have a pretty big readership. Even if it doesn't work out, it's a great forum to be a part of!

My LYS is a part of a group of yarn shops that does nationwide searches for yarn (and it doesn't cost anything to search). So you might check around to see if your LYS does that.
