Have you tried  contacting the place that you pourchased the kit from  to 
see what they say?  I am wondering how you are going to go back and find  
these spots or strands if you skip over them to continue with your  hooking.

Hi  all,



I have some not so good news, concerning my latch hook  project. I got
two-thirds of the way through the pattern only to find that  I had run out 
of
two different colors. There are a few possibilities for  why this has
happened. One is that I made some mistakes, and though I may  have placed a
few incorrect pieces of yarn, I am convinced that running out  of these
colors with so many yet to be placed on the canvas, makes this  possibility
unlikely. The second option is that my friend who sorted the  colors decided
that the yarns that were supposed to be light and dark gold,  were actually
other colors. Unfortunately the color packages were mixed and  unlabeled,
making it guess work as to which color was really which.  However, I trust 
my
friend's judgment so have also rejected this  possibility. The third
possibility is that I was not given enough of the  light and dark gold yarn.
Considering the fact that I have never dropped or  spilled a bag of yarn, I
suspect that I have been shorted yarn.   



So this is why I am sharing my experience with you. I don't  know if the 
same
thing will happen to you, but wanted to alert you to the  possibility.



So what am I going to do?  well, I am going  to finish the pattern and once
it is completed there will be the blank  spaces where the missing yarn is
supposed to be in the pattern. I will ask  some one to look at it and help 
me
decide whether I can substitute  different colors I have, or whether I 
should
purchase yarn of the same  color as the missing light and dark gold.  This 
is
a very  disappointing and frustrating state of affairs for me, but at least 
I
have  options. I am not giving up. I have put way too many hours into  this
project to give up now.  



So onward I go. Hope all  of you are having a better day with your  crafts.



Cathy
