I also bought some gorgeous yarn for which I promptly lost the label. They told me it was from the Black Forest in Germany which sounds very exotic. I just fell in love with the vibrant turquoise and white colors and immediately set to work on a hat for Horsey Girl on our car ride up to Oregon. I made up the pattern myself and unfortunately did not take in to account how tight and unstretchy it would be. As you can see I got very far along but have ended up tearing it all out and starting over. I do still really love the colors.

You're right that the photo doesn't do the yarn justice. Your yarn almost looks gray.
But that turquoise yarn is spectacular! Can't wait to see what your second attempt yields. LOL.
Sorry you had to start over...that Black Forest yarn is gorgeous, love the color, too :)
gorgeous yarn! and ya know, I've met now 3 people from my on-line yarniness and they were all just delightful. no psychoses so far that I'm aware of. but we're older and more suspicious in general and choose meetups safely etc. etc. kids..aaaarrghhh.
Yeah for psycho internet friends!
scarf looks like it will be nice and soft. Love the hat colors.
I think the yarn is Naturwolle - I manage the website at ImagiKnit (and am a knitblogger myself) and try to take a peek when people link back to the site. As for Psycho Internet friend, I have a teenager and they seem to have no problems meeting people on Myspace. It's a double standard, I tell you!
