This stuff is lovely.
I'm particularly enjoying the sensual experience of the knitting process. The wool is barely processed, so there's lots of lanolin left in it, and it smells marvellous. It's suprisingly soft, too, for something so close to the sheep.
The striping is fairly evident -- this yarn has no dye lots, needless to say. A colourway is a rough combination of various natural colours.
Mistake stitch ribbing, easy-peasy. This is definitely a yarn that demands a simple stitch -- it needs room to tell its own story.
