100% Bamboo Yarn

[Chrome Kitty]

I don't know if I can expect to see this in my LYS, but I'm going to be on the lookout for it. It sounds interesting. It says it's soft, cool and silky. Read about it here:

I saw some last weekend! It really is sooooo soft. Man, it was tempting.

I have a project started with Plymouth Royal Bamboo. Honestly, I don't like that yarn very much. It is very slippery and splits very easily. I put it aside and may frog it, but I hate the thought of starting the scarf over again, so we'll see.

One of my local LYSs has bamboo for $8.50 per 50 g ball! It was almost as much as the silks & cashmeres in terms of price. I'd have to have a super cool pattern before paying that price.

Yeah, the bamboo was super expensive (for me, anyway). That's why I'm determined to make a scarf I like out of it...it's costing me a fortune.
