Faux Cashmere

At spin class this week, Geeki brought me some faux cashmere to try.  I have to confess that it felt very luxurious.  I was wearing my cashmere cowl and there was only a slight difference in softness.


Here is the little bundle of fiber she gave me.

I spun it up on my Matchless and plied it back on itself.  It is very soft and lovely.

It was very easy to spin with no breaks at all.  The resulting yarn was light and infinitely squeezable.

I'm going to take it to knit group and see if the knit gals can feel the difference.


Geeki stated she got the fiber from Paradise Fibers.  I may have to buy some of this to have in my stash.
