New Alpaca/Wool Blend

Posted: Thursday, January 26, 2006 10:32:23 AM

Hello all!  Earlier this week we received a shipment of Berrocco UltraAlpaca, which is a 50/50 wool/alpaca blend.  Let me tell you , this is a very smooth, easy-knitting, worsted weight yarn that comes is soo many delicious colors.  At $8 for 215 yards it is quite a steal also!  I am knitting a wrap in the feather and fan lace pattern with three of the pink shades as a sampler for the store.  I started it last night, and have simply fallen in love with the yarn. :-)
 
Of course, I'll have to finish this before I can finish any of my other myriad of unfinished projects.  :-)  I think it will go very quickly.
 
Among other news - I am full time at JimmyBeansWool now, working Mon-Fri 10-6 with a few new responsibilities.  Next week I will be starting a Crochet class that has garnered some interest, and the week following there will be a new series of  K101 and K102 starting, both of which I am teaching.  Whew - I'm going to be busy, but I am having soo much fun!  :-)
