Please post (on your blog) about your favorite yarn and your least favorite yarn (if you have one!) What have you made with it? Tell us about your experiences! - Robyn
Ooh. Well, I have quite a few favorite yarns. So I will narrow it down to two categories: sock yarn and non-sock yarn.
For sock yarn: Socks That Rock Lightweight. I have only made socks with it so far, such as the Cedar Creek in my post below. I am so in love with their sock yarn. You can make mistakes, frog it back 10 times, split it, and it still comes back together and knits up beautifully. And I love merino wool, it is so nice to your hands.
For non-sock yarn: Morehouse Farms Merino wools. Again, my love affair with merino. Knitting with theirs is like knitting with cotton candy. Nice and loosely spun but not splitty. Sooo nice. I don't have any pictures of my finished cardigan, but I will try to remember to do that. And their patterns are clearly written.

First congrats on the cedar creeks. They look fab. Second, no I don't have KP DPNs. I do have classic circs and their KP Options. Based on my experience with both of these types of needles, I'd go for their DPNs. I'm not a fan of wood or bamboo or plastic DPNs. But, I'm not fan of DPNs in general either. I have yet to find a pair to fall for.
My mom is having non-major surgery this Monday I think. So, I may not be at the NWA. It's still up in the air.
MMmmMMMmmmm Merino. Yummy stuff! (mental note to self: Merino for SP10!)
