#fiberarts #question. I purchased a bamboo/cotton mix out of curiosity. I wanted to try bamboo. But it occurs to me I don't know how it is as a material (and I can't find the yarn in Ravelry's database). Is it warmer than cotton? Is it itchy? Does it stretch? Could I felt it if I wanted to? (I got this online, not locally, otherwise I may have thought to ask) Any details? #crochet #knitting #fibrearts

@lapis I know it's not itchy at all and it's not really warm, it's a good "breathable" summer yarn. I found a link on felting bamboo windrosefiberstudio.blogspot.c - needle felting works on the fibre but I'm pretty sure your cotton/bamboo mix won't felt in the washing machine
