Ebay Bargain - Alpaca YarnI thought you might like to see this I bought this Alpaca from this ebay seller - they seem to have a lot of choice and the yarn is really lovely. It is knitting up as 4ply - 28 sts per 10cm, but I have had to do it on 3mm needles to get that.
Such good value for money as well - even with the postage it cost me less than £20 for 10 balls. I'm really pleased with it. http://stores.ebay.co.uk/InterAme...olZ4QQdirZ1QQfsubZ8QQftidZ2QQtZkm [img]

I am doing a plain round neck raglan cardigan for me - I thought I would use black buttons - and if I've got enough, I might add a collar

Can't see over my huge pile of Irish tweed aran!
It looks great, Jo, I remember that you said you loved cardigans, this looks lovely and soft and smart as well. Black buttons sounds nice. |
