I have got to get a skein of this yarn in black tomorrow, because clearly I'm going to reach the accent section a lot faster than I thought.
Did I mention that this garment requires pretty damn near a kilometer of yarn? 987 meters of the main colour for my size (medium / large), as opposed to 1175 meters for the next size up (X / XL). Come to think of it, it needs sixty meters of the contrast colour, so that's a full kilometer and change...
