Has anyone had students who are allergic to wool? I had problems with the Paton Wool which is 100% wool but have done alright with Lion's Wool Ease which is only 80% wool. I had a student last week though who took medication to get through the beginning knit class becasue of a wool allergy.

I am working up a garter stitch hat using Loops & Threads - Charisma to see how the gauge goes and getting back with her. I told her not to buy the Paton Wool for the cable class. I'm suggesting she use Loops & Threads - Impeccable instead which is what I ended up using for my cable stitch projects.

With all these wonderful acrylic yarns available, I assured her there is not reason for her to suffer like that.
