I'm also having trouble finding the same yarn, the Bamboo soft. Michaels has a Bernat Bamboo yarn advertised in this weeks flyer. I looked it up on the site and it's a #5 bulky yarn. I also looked up the RY Bamboo and it does not give the weight. I will check out Michaels on wednesday to see. If any one has made it please let me know which yarn you used. The mohair yarn I can find with no problem.

the stats for the Bamboo yarn

(from the Rowan site)

 

Tension: 25 sts x 30 rows

Needle size: 3.75mm/9UK/5US

Meterage: 102m (112yds)/50g ball

 

This info should help us find a substitute.

 

I'll be watching this thread for other's suggestions.

I called my LYS this morning and they have the Bamboo Soft :cheer:clap The only color the have is more beige than cream, but I am willing to settle. They are holding it for me till tomorrow. I can't find the Paton Spirit, but I will just use a mohair. I am so happy :yay I will be able to start my meerkat :hook

Thank you so much for this pattern - kids and I went to a lot of the free movies this summer. For every single one, they did a preview of what was going on in Meerkat Manor. They are some of the most amazing creatures ever.

 

And your meerkat is dead on - it looks so real!
