Knitter's Review
January 3, 2013 
Our food has numerous protected designations of origin. Vidalia onions must originate from the area around Vidalia, Georgia; Roquefort, from the Combalou caves of Roquefort-sur-Soulzon. Yarn? Not so much. But we do have certain expectations. Say the term "Donegal tweed," for example, and most people think of robust, crunchy, hard-wearing woolens made in County Donegal, Ireland. This week let's take a look at a new Donegal yarn called Soft Donegal, still spun in County Donegal in the traditional way, but with one big difference: It's made from super-soft imported Australian Merino wool.
