Safely warm!

I can happily report that for the first time in say, forever, I feel warm when I wear my soft and luxurious Malabrigo Clapotis. The only problem I have met when the temperature falls 20 C degres below 0 is that my legs get really frozen. I just thought that I should knit myself some Malabrigo long-johns! LOL! Any pattern? ;-)

Now, that is what I would call ready for Quebec winter!

Unhappy? Impatient? I dunno...

It's been more than a week that my order from kyarns has been said "shipped", but still no signs of package at all.

I find this rather frustrating, especially considering that I found that being charged 20$ for the shipping to be ludicrously expensive (usually, nice stores will charge around 7$ for Canada, when coming from the USA). I just fear now that it'll be shipped by UPS (because, I didn't get the choice, despite the amount of money spent on it) and then getting my package will become a retarded exercice in trying not to lose a drop of sanity while juggling with a nuthouse (been there for a lense and it still hurts).

I wish that getting Malabrigo yarn didn't involve paying so much shipping. I wish for shipping options. I wish for delivery in a timely manner. Is that too much to ask? When you expect a package from amazon.com, it never takes forever, it is never complicated to get your order in your hands, and you never have to pay a retarded amount for it. Why yarn has to be different than books?

A question to all Malabrigo lovers

A question to all Malabrigo lovers (and they are oh so numerous!):

Where do you obtain your yarn?
Where/how have you done it so far?

All answers will be appreciated. :-)

Thank you.

Yarn envy!

I know I am not supposed to think about this, but I feel yarn envy!! Despite my yarn diet, I have ideas of mittens using Malabrigo yarn... 2 different colors. And a matching scarf for each pair... (2, so I can match my 2 winters coats: the light black one and the warmest navy one!)

In that respect, I need to try to resist buying a few skeins of Malabrigo Alpine Pearl, in worsted weight, but I may fail... It seems that this yarn is wonderful and I don't want to be left out!

As for the other yarn, I need your help!! I saw a someone using Malabrigo Merino, in worsted weight, Sealing Wax colorway (a non-solid red). Where can I find it???? I can't seem to find it anywhere I look on the interwebs!! Help!

In addition, where is the best place to order some Malabrigo? Who has the best selection and good prices? This yarn seems somewhat hard to find... :-(

Thank you!
