Knit Picks

I haven't ordered any of their yarns yet, but I want to.  Definitely gonna order Shine, Alpaca Cloud, Shimmer, some sockyarn.  But first, I want the real knitty gritty on the wool and wool blend yarns. Are they soft, scratchy. hot?  Living in GA, warmth is not a major issue.  BUT, for me personally, scratchiness is.  I don't need to layer, so I will wear wool next to my skin, and it simply can't be the itchy stuff (definitely NO Lopi for me!). So help me out here, tell me your experiences with

  • Merino Style
  • Radiance Wave
  • Andean Silk
  • Suri Dream
  • Elegance
  • Sierra
  • Twirl
  • Decadence
  • Ambrosia
  • Panache

So many projects, so little time.
