Alpaca Silk
As the knitted fabric grows under your needles, you will notice the colorful sheen produced by the silk in the exquisitely soft alpaca/Merino blend. You’ll probably find yourself absentmindedly stroking the fabric like you would a cat - it feels that good! The yarn almost glitters with the speckles of light cast by the silk, making textured stitches and cables lustrously rise from the deep softness of the alpaca and Merino. This is a pampering yarn, worthy of scarves, vests and complete pullovers to envelop loved ones in warmth.
