I just got a shipment of gansey yarns from Iriss of Penzance.

These authentic British breed gansey yarns are as different from any wool
yarn that I have ever knit; as silk is different from wool. First, they are
stretchy beyond belief, which makes them a delight to knit fast and tight.
Second, they look like crap if they are not knit just right. I need
knitting lessons!!! No wonder these yarns are not popular for general
knitting!

But for a master knitter, I really can see how these would be the yarns of
choice. And, more than any other yarn that I have ever worked with, it is
the yarn that I would like to wear when I am active in cool weather.

That acrylic gardening sweater is going to get cut up into paint rags real
soon now.
