I am have washed up the end of the Snowberry fleece and it is currently drying on the drying rack. I am almost to the end of the B4 Bag.
I am still working on my BeadWork swatch in Merino Bamboo, boy, you should of seen the flack I got about using a bamboo yarn on the BW yahoo group. I still think this will work since it has 60% Merino 10% Nylon and 30% Bamboo in it. They all seem to think it will stretch out unbelievably. I don't think they saw the word "blend" in my post and just ran with it.
I am sitting here playing with my new iMac and until the credit card is paid off, there won't be any new yarn or fiber purchases in my near future! I like it so far, but my e-mail is different and I am still searching for a good checkbook utility to use - so any suggestions are welcome.
As a side note, I am struggling with iMac and Blogger, so the pictures are probably huge. The doggies were playing with Caryn and a stick . . . just look at those faces! What's not to love?

Your babies are gorgeous! Your bag is coming along nicely and the picture of your fiber looks sooooo wonderful, I wish I could touch it!!
Your life sounds great, keep up the good work.....
I can't wait to see the bag in person and to see what the new bag is going to be like. My Jordan knows a lot about IMAC's. Puppies are so cute. I know they are puppies but they ain't babies either. Hope to see you Tuesday.
Love the doggie picture. I just want to hug them right through the monitor!
Oooooooh. The red is wonderful!
Dear June--
I bought the yarn in Japan. Here is the page for it:

And here is information about ordering Japanese products (scroll down):

I love that red!
Which colorway did you order? I think mine is 103.

You will so love that mohair. If you have any KSH, be prepared to get rid of it. It feels scratchy next to the Richmore stuff.
Actually, I don't think the blend is going to stretch much. I knit myself a pair of socks out of it, and granted, they do have some ribbing, but not a ton. They held up great in clogs all day, and came back nice and bouncy after a trip in the washer/dryer. Hope yours works as well!
