You used to have to do a little hunting if you wanted anything beyond plain-old "wool" in your yarn. Today, not so much.

Coming Up
It's my book tour time! This Thursday night I'm at Third Place Books in Lake Forest Park, WA. Friday? Book Passage in San Francisco. On Saturday, I go back up to Portland for a reading at the renowned Powell's Books, while Sunday takes me to legendary Vroman's in Pasadena. The tour continues, with all the dates and details here.
