Notes
Hmmm...., so, just to tidy up my tabs a bit I am making a short list of some nice uk vegan yarn sellers, and some yarn store that are within public transport of where I live.
Yarn Yarn online store and also on ebay for handspun Banana Yarn:

Twisted Stitches have that beautiful, naturally coloured Pakucho Cotton from Peru:
"Over a decade of ethnographic, botanical and archaeological research by the Native Cotton Project of Peru, trademarked in 1994 as Pakucho, has led to the identification of pre-Columbian farming techniques for sustained cotton harvesting and environmental resource management. As steward of this unique genetic resource, Pakucho has recovered a wide range of naturally colored cotton fiber, including cream, beige, brown, rust, chocolate, mauve, green and other earthy tones. "
Love that.
