Hard time getting Yarn

Hello Ladies, having some trouble getting the Cotton Fleece locally. Had to order from Patternworks.com I won't have my yarn until Monday or Tuesday and I'm working on understanding the cast-on method to be used. I'm also moving this weekend so I'm really going to be behind on this project but hope to recover quickly. I am a newbie at sweaters but hope to be able to follow this one without too much hassle. Just wanted to check in. Happy knitting.
