I’ve been finding it harder and harder to find #wool #sockYarn that is neither merino or superwash treated. I was thrilled last week to discover #AlleyCatYarns, right here in #ottawa (well, Kanata)! I placed an order that I’ve since collected and can’t wait to start #knitting with it!

@monstreline Those look *delightful*. I really appreciate when yarn makers call out the specific breed of wool (besides merino, I mean). These are going on my wish list, thanks for sharing!

@quoidian wow, thank you! The yarns they have are heavier than I would use for socks but I have some other projects in mind that could use them and I’ve bookmarked their site!

To be honest, the cowl I'm now casting off is my first knitting in forty years so I have no expertise. I found their yarn pleasant to handle.

@quoidian you know what you like, that’s your (very valid) expertise! Good luck with your cowl!
