You are Mohair.
You are a warm and fuzzy type who works well with
others, doing your share without being
too weighty. You can be stubborn and
absolutely refuse to change your position once it is set,
but that's okay since you are good
at covering up your mistakes.
What kind of yarn are you?

Non wool fibers part 2
I just discovered tonight that this post was still saved as a draft and not really posted. My apologies to those that came to see the photos connected with the podcast episode 32 Silk soy and milk.
These are fibers for spinning of course, not food. It's part 2 of our non wool fiber podcasts. We talk a little bit about silk, since it was also covered in a previous episode. We focused on the soy fiber, talking about how to spin and dye it. And also a bit on the milk fiber. All of these fibers belong with protein fibers group, and dye like wool, with the exception that they should not be held at heat above 200 degrees.
Both my daughter and a vendor Natural Obsessions have a knack for dyeing these fibers. Here's a few pictures to prove it:
100% milk fiber, dyed by Natural Obsessions:
