Houston, we have a problem

So those two backordered skeins of Dream in Color Everlasting 8-ply in Tidewater arrived today in the mail. I'd been keeping my fingers crossed, but luck does not seem to have been on my side.

Remember my three original skeins (from left to right): perfect, darker version of perfect, and too blue?

 Well, meet my two new skeins, way too brown, and a little too brown (this is with flash):

 the whole skeins:

 and in sunlight:

 and another (too much brown on top):

I did not even dare ask "How many variations of this colorway could there be?" but wow, I'm at a loss. Also, I'm fairly certain I won't need all five skeins for my cardigan. So maybe I'll make a cardigan for Itty Bitty, depending on how much I have left. Of course, it will be for the next winter. Summer officially made its appearance today--it's only 70F but for some reason, feels like 77F.

Or. . . I could save all of my sock-weight DIC for a raglan later on. It's an idea I've been mulling over. That would be a lot of leftovers though, and I'm not sure how many sweaters I'd have to have knitted in different colors for this to be a viable option. Well, that might work for Itty Bitty. Unfortunately, most of the colors I like (red and variations of grey) are not colors she likes (red, pink and purple). We only have red in common, and so far, there has been no red sweater. For now, I have to figure out what to do with this new yarn and how to incorporate it into my sweater. Maybe I can trade out the too-blue skein. Because it's really too blue. My poor cardigan. It's going to look mottled. Maybe I'll be the only one that notices?
