But I had trouble with Fleece Artist's dreadlocks - shed, shed, shed. I wore it on a plane from LA to London and the poor person next to me (wearing a black business suit) was covered on the side nearest to me!! And don't wear it when you are out and having a snack as you will find you are eating strands of it. And it floats in your coffee if it is windy. Thank goodness Starbucks and other coffee companies put lids on the take-away cups. The trouble is that it is a beautiful color (Hercules) and people keep stopping and admiring my poncho. Dreadlocks is the evil pal of the evil Mo! Somehow I think Fleece Artist and Hand Maiden need to learn a bit more about spinning mohair I have Mo in a kit to be knit with other yarn (kid aran) and it has been OK.

Oh that yarn is evil, yes yes yes. It sheds worse than my cats. And I, oh, I was seduced into by TWO skeins of it, TWO!! and for something like THREE years I have been staring at it saying: I cannot make this a scarf, too heavy, too sheddy. I cannot make this a sweater (my original intent) too heavy, too sheddy...and so on down the list. I tried to mix it with other less histrionic yarns 60 dollars (plus applicable sales tax) for lovely but useless fibre. But you know what. I am going to make slippers out of it, oh yeah!!! I couldn't bring myself to make slippers because, well, it was too expensive. Well these are going to be damn expensive slippers. Thank you. You have released me from the curse of Fleece Artist Country Mohair. EX$pen$ive $lipper$ coming up!! sltsm2k.blogspot.com I just about bust my gut (which would be messy) reading this.

I came upon your blog by searching for Country Mohair Fleece Artist and getting Evil Yarn of Evil. Then I got distracted by all your other funnies. Then I remembered why I came here. See, cuz Little Knits (the poster from YESTERDAY!) is going to have it for 45% off. And I was trying to find out if it was worth buying. Thanks for saving me money.<br/><br/>But I think it's funny that she asks to use the garment and wonders what you thought of the yarn. Did she not read the post? "evil yarn of evil"? Huh?
