Comments: I bought this yarn several years ago, at a British fibre festival called Woolfest.  It came as one giant, 490g skein, which I wound into a ball that was almost as big as a soccer ball... then I found out that this is actually bad for the yarn, so I had to re-skein it and wash it to put the spring back into its stitch (so to speak).  Now I'm going to knit it into this.
