Sweet Georgia Yarns is going out of business or taking a vacation - for probably 6-9 months - the shop in Oregon is getting their shipment in a few weeks, but the entire shipment is already presold - they only had one kid of kid mohair yarn left to sell - Unwind (in Burbank near me) doesn't have any stock... the shop in NY has been out of the yarn for a few months - I guess since she decided to stop selling for a while, her yarn has become very desired. I hear you can find it on ebay but it's pretty pricey - and the chances of finding what you want in the colorway you want would be slim - maybe through www.etsy.com you might find some yarn folks who could spin/dye yarn similar to this? I know you don't NEED it but if the muses call, then you should answer!
I've surfed every web site and googled as well - those that show online ordering either don't list sweet Georgia or don't have the coffee bean. I'd prefer to order online if I can - makes payment easier....
not that I really *need* it; I just *want* it.

I pretty much guessed you had found the list, but I figured it wouldn't hurt to point it out just in case. At the very least, other members can see if there is one of the stores near them.
Some of them might not have anything online, but could ship if called. One of the stores is in St. Louis. I have family there that I could call in a few favors to have them check it out.
