> Has anyone seen the bleached soy silk?? > Belinda Morgan That someone is me and I like the blend so much that I ordered a whole bunch of the bleached directly from China. It is floating somewhere along the coast of CA so I should be able to tell you about it next week. So far I've only seen pictures of the bleached top. I just love the way Belinda's Cormo/Soy roving spins. I was determined to get small skein spun and a swatch knitted so I could put some pictures on my web site but I've gotten side tracked again. The first shearing day is fast approaching and I'm frantically mending sheep coats and clearing out the shop to make room for the new fleeces. I wonder if the reason that the soy fiber works so well with wool is because it is also a protein fiber so at least the chemical if not the physical characteristics are similar. It is nice that they have similar tolerances to heat and pH.
