I lost my wool cap yesterday.
It was the only knit cap I have here outside of the screaming yellow one, so obviously I needed to replace it. And obviously I couldn't go to Ibex's website and order just a cap. And obviously I couldn't order more wool for myself without offering DH a chance to get in on the order, too.
D@mn cap cost me $400.

Sorry about the lost cap, but this made me laugh out loud. I've had lost items cost me much more in the same way...though I didn't have a DH to add to the order

Hey there fellow weenies!
I'm posting here to let you all know that I'm going to be putting an awfully large amount of wool up for sale very shortly. I'm keeping *plenty* so I'm not in any danger of losing my weenie status by any stretch of the imagination. It's just that now that I've lost weight - there is just too much lovely wool going unused for our tiny space (and we have zero room for storage).
There will be a ton from the three big brands (Ibex, Icebreaker and Smartwool) to be listed as soon as I take photos. Keep your eyes peeled!Last edited by GLC1968; 01-20-2014 at 08:44 AM.

Added a few more items yesterday and there is likely to be more coming as soon as soon as I have time to weed out my drawers (later this week)!

FYI, Ibex is having their winter sale now, if anyone feels the need for any new wool. I don't really need any but am fighting the urge to buy the bright red Shak...it would be good for visibility when biking/running/etc.

Did you all see the Ibex announcement today? They're introducing a new natural fiber called DFF.
