I always thought of wool as a cold weather sort of fabric. Now I wonder. What temperature does it become to warm to wear wool?

Tank top...
I own a wool tank top. I replaced all of my polypro items with wool. So, basically anytime you would wear synthetic I would say you could replace it with wool. I have some super thin Smartwool shirts that I wear on 90 degree days. I have never biked without wearing wool. I don't think there is ever a temperature that you couldn't wear wool!

yeah, but, Nicole does it ever get HOT in Port Townsend? whenever I've been there it's been 10 degrees colder than Seattle.
PS, are you up for Hurricane Ridge Tomorrow?

Next time give us more notice and my BF and I will join you for sure. He would love that. (So would I). We are in Victoria this weekend. Sorry we will miss you.

My new Ibex Switchback Pullover SHRANK!!!!!!
Like, painfully tight, look I'm Dolly Parton, cutting off circulation, sqeezing my spaghetti-like biceps TIGHT!!!!
I've NEVER had ANYTHING from Ibex shrink before!
Washed it the same as all my other woolies (including my other Switchback), cold water (the hot water hose is disconnected from my washer, so I'm certain it was cold!) gentle cycle, hang dry.
AAAAAAG!
