Alpaca Silk is a brushed yarn made from pure natural materials. With fine fibers from baby alpaca, the quality is extra soft and comfortable against the skin, and together with silk and extra fine merino wool, the yarn has a light, airy and elegant feel. The yarn is quite heavy to use, with many meters per skein. The result is knitwear that feels light on the body, but still gives a warm and good feeling. If you knit with one thread, you get thin and slightly transparent garments - perfect for shawls and summer tops. With two threads, you get a fuller expression and more coverage, while the garment is still airy and soft. This makes the quality flexible and easy to adapt to the desired expression and area of use. Alpaca Silk is also very suitable as a follower thread. It adds a soft, muted fluff without overpowering the main yarn. Together with, for example, Norwegian wool, it provides increased softness while preserving the rustic expression. It works just as well in stockinette stitch as in cable and structured knitwear, where it gives a subtle depth rather than taking over the expression. This is a versatile yarn for those who want that little extra. Whether it's something floaty and light or a soft upgrade to another favorite yarn.
