I have wool coming! I bought a blue merino endura baselayer a few months back following all the recommendations on here for wool, and it is perfect, sees as much wear off the bike as on it. So I've ordered an Ibis Women's crew in black, can't wait!

So, today was another experiment in wool, which failed. Put the smart wool base layer on, with a full zip light thermal Craft jersey. No way... I sat around my house itching for 2 hours and changed to a different base and mid layer before going snow shoeing. Then, I put my Vim Hybrid jacket on when we left. It was about 31, but the temperature was going down, it was cloudy, and getting windy. I felt cool until we started climbing the 20+% grade hill for about half a mile. But, no excessive sweating, which is excellent.
Not sure what this means, except that it seems that wearing a wool base layer one day sort of sensitizes my skin and starts some kind of histamine reaction, which is OK if I don't annoy it by wearing wool the next day.

This is starting to sound like a knitting forum. Just a little.

I am not worthy of the wool

I do sometimes wish that Isis and Ibex were one company, though.

Just ordered 2 Ibex bras from TE. I am hoping the small fits; while I am x small in the cup, I am somewhat broad in the shoulders/chest, so I think I'm OK.
They were on sale and who cares if they are last year's model? I hope they get here in the mail Thursday, so I can pack them for my trip to Franconia on Friday.
This is what I do when it's a snow day and I'm avoiding studying.

Is it wrong that I just ordered a wool blanket for my husband as a Valentine's gift? If we share it, that's romantic, right?
