Acacia is stunning a 8ply (DK weight) yarn that has been grown and processed in NSW. In fact Acacia has been grown and processed within a 3 hour radius. 80% alpaca and 20% merino (non super washed). It is a classic style of yarn that is soft, squishy and has a great handle. Very soft and gentle against the skin. Great for jumpers or cardigans!

This range has been hand dyed by Angela. These colours form part of the standard range. Repeatable colours in batch lots. Why not mix and match this range with the some of the stunningly beautiful natural colours in our Myrtle 8ply range?
