A year or so ago, I tried ordering a large-ish quantity of wool from Webs, the online yarnseller. They speciallise in some 100% wool called Valley Yarn, which seemed pretty much perfect for fair isle. It comes in lots of colours (Palette) and it's hairy enough that it should double-strand nicely. Over several weeks, I tried a few things with it, including learning how to two-strand and pick at once. And I tried some colourwork patterns. I'll spend some time telling you about it, maybe.
