...Since this is your first sweater, I suggest going with Brown Sheep or Cascade 220. Both wash and wear beautifully and last forever. As well as getting more wool for your money as well as a huge colour selection and decent prices.
Yes I can second the recommendation for both Cascade brand and Brown Sheep brand. Both are good wools at reasonable prices.
