Have you tried e-bay?

I'm sure there was a poster on the kntting thread that was after a pattern for her son, I think she did find one, but wanted to alter the neck a bit.

(Apologies if it was you who posted)

There are a few knitting threads here which mention a fair number of sites that you may not yet have found. Your homework for this evening...

just a thought but how did you know how much aran to buy without a pattern? It might take more (or less) than you think? Have you googled for a pattern? I'll have a look, what size you thinking of knitting?
