My Experience
Where I got it: Ritual Dyes provided these skeins for me to try.
Needles I used: Hiya Hiya US 3/.235 mm
Blocked Gauge I got: 28 sts/44 rows = 4"/10 cm
My Thoughts: Lots of bounce and toothiness to this one. It’s very soft (I’d wear it around my neck for sure) with a pleasant nubbly character.
What I might design with it: I’m thinking a sweater without a lot of patterning. That texture should shine on its own and I think the resilience would be great for long-lasting sweaters.
Where you can get some: Check the Ritual Dyes website and your LYS. Last time I was there, Starlight Knitting Society in Porland, OR carried it.
