We`re in upstate NY, so humidity isn`t much of a problem (at least I don`t think so - haven`t been here for a summer yet) - we actually had a couple of inches of SNOW overnight, LOL!

He hasn`t been able to wear the wool/wool-blend sweaters I had knit him because they keep the heating up too high in his office at work. But we had a few warmish days there last week, and he says they had the AC up too high as well - so I`m not too worried about the Araucania being too thick. More worried that it might just stretch under it`s own weight and become a mini-dress... mind you, he`s got a great set of pins from all the runnng he`s done over the years, so maybe that wouldn`t be such a bad thing! Heeheehee

But I ADORE knitting with it - it`s so soft, and I love the undulations in think and thin yarn.

Oh, I meant to say - if you like the Araucania, there`s a similar yarn that is gorgeous here:

Look for the "rainbow cottons" - not only do the have similar properties to the Araucania, but they`re handpainted the most lovely shades.

Okay, since I`ll only be carrying the yarn up two rows, should I twist the strands? Darn...I`m so disappointed!]]> Wed, 26 Nov 2003 10:19:29 GMT http://www.elann.com/Commerce.web/forums/messages.aspx?TopicID=134156 Tue, 25 Nov 2003 20:10:16 GMT http://www.elann.com/Commerce.web/forums/messages.aspx?TopicID=134156
