I am working on this pattern right now and ran into the same issue with the yarn as others have. SWTC doesn't carry this particular color anymore (although they do have the inspiration line in other colors on their website).  I went to www.elann.com and this wonderful website has a conversion calculator with which you can substitute other like yarns that you can purchse online from this site.  I am using the elann Louise Harding jasmine yarn in citrine and it is turning out beautiful.

I did run into one issue with the pattern with regards to the neckline and had to make an adjustment to the pattern to accommodate my long torso.  Please e-mail me if you would like the pattern adjustment as it would be too much to type ot all on the comment page.  (breezypinesfarm@gmail.com)

I love this hoodie and may make more than one for a holiday gift.
