I'm usually playing yarn chicken, I sympathize. The vest would be cute, but I would try to get more yarn if the cardigan is more useful. I thrift yarn and on two recent projects I needed more yarn. I went on Ravelry and was able to find more of both discontinued varieties and able to complete the two sweaters. I paid more than thrift store prices, but pretty good deals and the total garment cost was quite low.

Unfortunately I’m the only person who has this yarn stashed on Ravelry 😭. I’m definitely keeping an eye out though!
