Source of Bison Yarn - March 2003

Dear Gerald:

Hi.  You probably aren't the correct person to send this inquiry to, but perhaps you can steer me in the right direction.

I'm a hand-knitter, and ever since I saw the bison-fiber products in the Herrington Christmas catalog, I've been looking for a source of bison yarn, so far to no avail.  I'm on several knitting e-mail lists and know that many other hand-knitters would like to try this fiber, too, so I'm hoping you know of someone producing this yarn for retail sale, or if not, could suggest other people for me to contact.

Thanks very much for your help.

Judi

I am forwarding your message to Adele Boucher who is the Bison Fibre Co-ordinator for the Alberta and Peace Country Bison Associations. She would be the best person to answer your questions.
