I got curious and googled it. It used to be illegal for a "commoner" to wear this stuff!

Wow! My DH looked at me crazy when i came home with 2.1 oz of Bernat Bamboo yarn for $5, but i couldn't resist once i touched it. Belive me i tried.

 

I also googled this vicuna yarn. It is so expensive cause it can only be shorn once every 3 years. Its supposed to be very warm and soft. I found it in wikipedia

If I win the $230 million dollar PowerBall today will I no longer be considered a "commoner" and be allowed to buy the yarn in good conscience?

I should show this link to my husband anytime he claims I spend too much money on yarn!

And hand wash and dry flat?? For that price, it would have to do it by itself and sing as it does it.

 

Well, if you don't need to gas up your car, that could work. Yeah, right!!!

I think for that price i should be able to tell the yarn to crochet itself into what i want.

for that price after it's crocheted it should also do the dishes and mop!
