I just bought heaps of shetland wool the other day. It's a really lovely yarn - soft, but holds well, lightweight and very warm. It is not as soft as cashmere or merino, but it wears much better than either with no bobbling. Sometimes I prefer seeing a big basket full of wool than actually knitting it. With a basket full of wool, you can still dream about all the amazing things you will make...whereas knitting is all about losing count, cursing and unravelling.
