Lemieux

Although this yarn doesn't feel the softest at first grasp, those who have used it come back for more. The hand is great as you work with it and when blocked it feels nice. This 100% wool yarn wears like iron so there is no pesky pilling problem to worry about, making it a great yarn for mittens (see Angora-Lined Latvian Mitten Kit). Also, because of the twist, it shows off stitch patterns really nicely. If you're putting a lot of work into an Alice Starmore cable pattern, this is a great choice to use. 215 yds/sk. 5 sts/in on US 6-8 over cable pattern. $4.75/sk
