Dreamin' of Clapotis

I really want to start on the famous clapotis from Knitty. I love the recommended yarn but I just can't see spending $30 a pop for Lorna's Laces--and the pattern requires 3 skeins. So I've been doing some research on yarn substitutions. There has been a lot of discussion on that topic so it was easy to find information. Here are a couple of links I found useful and/or liked the yarn that was used:

A few people used Koigu as an alternative, which I really like too. I think that's what I may go with.
