Prime Alpaca Yarn in Natural Colors
$36.00
This superfine grade Alpaca yarn by Galler yarns comes in natural colors and is incredibly soft. Each skein is 8 oz and 660 yards in a DK weight. Knitting gauge is 5.5 stitches/inch, 11WPI.
This yarn originates high in the Peruvian Andes where fiber is collected from carefully managed alpaca herds. These hardy animals live at elevations of over 13,000 feet in the Andes and their adaptation to the extreme weather conditions contributes to a lighter, denser and softer fleece, with more thermal capacity than that of their lowland cousins. The fiber is carefully processed and spun in a mill committed to improving the quality of life in their region, as well as the quality of the yarn. The results can be felt in every skein.
Alpaca yarns are naturally hypoallergenic, lanolin and dander free, and water and fire resistant. And just beautiful!

Superfine Alpaca
Have knitted only a swatch so far, but this stuff feels great. Nice and soft and fuzzy. Looking forward to wearing something made from it. Giving it 5 stars.
