Needful Yarn has come out with a yarn that's a blend of rayon and ceramic. It's apparently guaranteed to drop your surface skin temperature five degrees. Super!Weird! Also teribly useful for Super!Hot! Florida days, so I'd like to try it, of course. ;) Maybe once I have $13 to drop on just over 90 yards of heavy worsted-weight yarn...
I wonder if it would work as a hat. Knit a cap out of it and see if it keeps your head cool. ;)
