It was on sale....

My LYS had a 50% off remodeling sale. I stocked up on yarn for a couple of big projects I hope to take underway.

I have made a deal with myself that as soon as I finish 1 project (thumbs on Fetching) and start a second silk armwarmer- I can start some sweaters. You know I've never knit one sweater but multiple sweaters- that sounds like a good idea....

I am going to make this...

Kelly Cardigan from Erika Knights' Classic Knits

I am going to make this....

Tangled Yoke Cardigan from IKFall 07

I had some help taking pics today from Turtle.

"I will protect this fine population of yarn"

"I did such a good job protecting it....It is now ALL MINE!"

"I said, MINE, lady!"

Yarn substitution help??

So if there are any knitters left out there, I need help. Or opinions at least.
Do you think I can substitute this Crystal Palace Kid Merino yarn for Rowan Kidsilk Haze?
In a cardigan?

Please help, oh great knitters of the internets!
