Guest yarn 

Gomitoli's Cashmere 4 ply is May's yarn of the month.  

175m in a ball will knit you up some of the softest, warmest accessories you can make. This 100% cashmere is from Italian spinner Filati Biagioli Modesto, who have been making high-end yarns since 1919 and have just started to spin for domestic hand-knitters.

It's a guest here, so once it's gone it's gone.
