Wow! I just finished knitting a scarf with a bamboo / wool blend yarn that is absolutley beautiful.
I never worked with bamboo yarn before and I am amazed at how easy it is to work with. A few years ago I switched to wooden knitting needles and bamboo yarn and wooden needles are a match made in heaven. The yarn simply glides and seems to form effortlessly with the pattern.
I used traditionally cables on each edge and a braided cable through the center for this charcoal beauty. It is soft, warm and simply perfect!

I LOVE this scarf. Makes me wish it were a little cooler outside to wear!
I've never even heard of bamboo yarn! Does it differ much in texture from other yarns?
Danielle - it's the first I've worked with it too. I must say it is incredibly soft and it just glides on the needles. Of course, my favorite is wool, but this is very close to my fav now!
Beautiful!
I love yarn that glides off the needles!
Mycurrent knitting project does not glide! LOL
That looks so soft and warm! I love bamboo, especially bamboo bed sheets, they are the softest!!
