Jaeger Roma anyone?Has anyone ever used this?? I got some today for only £1.00 a ball to make the Lilly cardi from the Roma book. It feels lovely. Black Sheep have it on sale for £1.99 & I thought that was cheap

There you go again with your bargains  Do you ever pay the proper price for wool missus??
I saw it at BSheep but I'd never seen it in the flesh so let it pass

 not very often!! It feels a bit like Sublime  Matchmaker Merino DK was only £1.50 & Patons washed haze aran just £1.00, I had to stock up a bit. I seem to use one bag of wool & replace it with 10

I did try this out once and it is gorgeous yarn - the touch of Angora makes it very soft and its really nice to knit with
I am sad that Jaeger are shutting down - I always liked their stuff

There was lots of this in the JL sale, but I've never knitted with it and didn't know how it would turn out, so I didn't get any.
Was that a mistake? Should I go back and see if there's any left?

No Ali, it was at House of Frazer in B'ham city centre.
Oblonsky, if it's dead cheap like I found, it has to be worth it, it does feel lovely & at 22s/30r it will suit any dk pattern. I'm sure you could ebay it & not lose if you don't like it
