Check this out. Qiviut, one of the world's most expensive fibres because it's harvested from arctic musk oxen who are in short supply in herds, in a blend with angora, silk, and alpaca, 25 grams for $7.95 USD. Just for comparison's sake, the 90% Qiviut yarn right above it is $150 for 100 grams.

The 25 grams is 200 yards, and it's laceweight, so that's a nice lacy mini-shawl, right there. I might make it into a winter cowl scarf, because there is no warmer fibre on the planet. I bought it in purple. :)
