I am pretty much 'knitting free' but I do raise Romneys, market their wool to 
handspinners and knitters  and have some experience from seeing what people do 
with my long wool luster yarn.  I have seen people turn my fleeces into 
spectacular plain white Romney sweaters that absolutely sparkle.  Not boring at 
all because of the luster.   I was told that the trick is to spin it fairly 
fine and hard and then knit using stitches that are edgy, angled, sharp - not 
flat - any stitches that catch light accentuate the glitter in the wool.    
Perhaps Lincoln could benefit from the same approach?  Might be worth a sample 
to see?
