No, she is a friend how is helping us.

There are actually four stages of the wool, we will maybe import the fourth 
as well.

        Kemba - felting wool (cheapest by weight)

        Pl?tulopi - stranded but untwisted version of above.  This is what 
we will specialise in as not otherwise available in the UK

        Einband - lace weight made by twisting Pl?tulopi

        L?ttlopi - several Einbands would together (most expensive by weight)

The Pl?tulopi is long strand, so can easily be pulled apart if held a 
distance apart but is strong if trying to pull from close together.  It just 
gets twisted together (no knots) and feels great.  The wool is unlike others 
in that it is light, doesn't feel too warm inside but cuts the wind outdoors.

Well, now a model and photographer... is this a Selfie?

I went looking and found the 58.3 web pages.... and had a question...
There are 3 different wools offered for sale... what is the practical
difference between them?

Been quite busy these past few weeks.   A couple of knitting designs by my
wife and printed bags ready for a couple of weeks' time...
