50g balls of exceptionally soft and naturally warm, our DK Alpaca Yarn is hand-picked from British and Irish alpaca farms - no animals are harmed in the process, and indeed are happy to be sheared in late Spring every year. It's our most popular yarn, and our 45+ five-star reviews speak for themselves.
The blend is 75% alpaca / 25% sheep, combining the finest qualities of both fibres: the softness and sheen of alpaca with the structure and resilience of wool.
What makes alpaca yarn so special?
- Fibres are finer and longer than sheep's wool - softer and less itchy
- Contains no lanolin, making it hypoallergenic and suitable for sensitive skin
- Naturally sustainable - processed at very low temperatures
- Beautiful natural sheen gives finished items a luxurious look
- Water-repellent and moisture-wicking for comfort in all conditions
