I started Ene's scarf from Scarf Style and I love the Alpaca Cloud yarn. I wound two skeins into balls and neither had any knots or flaws of which I was aware. The yarn is so soft, it's a dream to knit. The scarf has 375 stitches so it's taking a long time to knit one row, but since it's triangular, I'm decreasing stitches on every row. By the time I get home from work I have only about an hour to knit before I'm too tired to concentrate, I hope to make some progress this weekend.

I bought five skeins of Knit Picks Alpaca Cloud, 2 of Mist, 2 of Stream and 1 of Midnight, all destined to be shawls or scarves.

I also bought 12 skeins of the Wool of the Andes, I don't have a pattern picked out for it yet, and haven't even opened the plastic bag it came in.

The felting fiasco I was mentioned in the last post was in reference to the Gansey from a couple of weeks ago. Apparently, I haven't really recovered from that mistake.
