Decisions!
I have started the scarf, pattern is easy to memorise but the darn yarn keeps slipping off the needles it's so fine. I can work maybe 6 rows then the yarn slips off ... I am using aluminiums should I buy a pair of bamboos? Am also trying to decide on hat yarns ... it's a lacy pattern should I use 80% angora which will make it warm even though lacy, or should I use Debbie Bliss cotton cashmere which will make it more like a decorative indoor cap?

Yep, I would give bamboos a try. The feel of them is different of course, but I bet your yarn wouldn't slip off like that anymore.

I prefer metal needles as well. But, whenever I work with slippery yarns, I always use bamboo. It seems to hold it on the needle better.
