Question ...

I'm thinking of starting another Phoebe sometime soon, and instead of doing the one long rectangle, this time I'd like to do two rectangles with one point in back and one in front.  I haven't done the measurements yet, but I think that I'd need longer than 20" per rectangle length as the length will go up against the shorter edge of the other rectangle. (Whew, was that confusing or what?)  What I mean is that I know I'll be needing more yarn ... but how much do you think I'd need?  I guesstimate that I used around 225 yds for my phoebe (a little into the 2nd skein of Lamb's Pride, and the first was 190 yds).  How many yards did you all use exactly for your phoebe?  Any advice is appreciated! :)
