Alpaca Yarn

Alpaca yarn is renowned for its incredible softness, natural warmth and luxurious quality. The yarn is spun from fibres of the alpaca – an animal similar to the llama but with an especially thick and fine fleece. The undercoat is particularly prized worldwide, giving alpaca yarn its exclusive character. The yarn is almost free from lanolin, making it suitable even for sensitive skin, including the youngest family members.

Alpaca fibres are both strong and flexible, so your creations hold their shape, drape beautifully and feel comfortable against the skin. Alpaca yarn has a lovely sheen and is perfect for everything from jumpers and shawls to accessories, ponchos and clothes for children and babies. Whether you knit for yourself or your grandchildren, you'll get an extra soft yarn that insulates effectively and keeps you warm – while letting your creativity flow in beautiful and comfortable projects.
