    Look, if I can knit, anyone can.

    Plus alpaca wool here is dirt cheap, so all my hose are alpaca, except the ones I learned on - they are acrylic.
    So...this seems like it might merit another thread, but this interests me greatly. I've looked all over the place, and the only non-wool option I've found for diced hose are the nylon ones from J. Higgins:

    I love my alpaca winter socks. If you were to start a store of alpaca highland wear, I would think you could do quite well. Is it possible you could expand on your process a little bit or post a how-to guide for people like me who know nearly nothing about knitting?
