This is a lovely soft yarn that knits/crochets beautifully, made from 50% baby alpaca / 50% baby merino. 'Baby' alpaca does not mean that we stole the fleece from baby alpacas (crias); it's simply the term used to describe the finest micron fibre available. We mix it with the softest merino wool to give it good structure, stretch and the softest yarn you will fine.

Gorgeous yarn. I have been using this yarn to dye with, using my natural dyes. It dyes beautifully - maintaining it softness and is a dream to knit with. Have ordered 4 times now. Just love it.
This is really exceptional yarn. No knots in the 300g I’ve knitted with so far and super soft. Im knitting a cable cardigan and I’m anticipating it’s going to be very special with this yarn!
This is the best yarn I've knitted with & I have been knitting since the age of 10.
I was looking for a special, yet inexpensive Christmas present for my niece & great niece & as a prolific knitter this yarn fitted the bill. The best alpaca yarn I have ever knitted with & not one knot in the entire 100gm!
Just wanted to drop you a line to say thank you for the most gorgeous wool ever - Aran Alpaca Merino

Frequently Asked Questions
Natural fibers are biodegradable and decompose naturally, unlike synthetic fibers, which take over 200 years to degrade. During this time, they contribute to landfill waste, release greenhouse gases, and leach toxic chemicals into the environment.
Alpaca material is stain-resistant, which means that it needs less washing and is less likely to get ruined by stains … and alpaca is stain-resistant without having chemicals and coatings added to it to make it so.
Sustainable Fashion Story
Alpaca yarn is naturally wrinkle-resistant, eliminating the need for ironing and reducing energy consumption. This helps lower carbon emissions, with ironing estimated to produce 190 kg of CO₂ per person annually.
Unlike sheep and goats, alpacas graze sustainably by trimming grass instead of uprooting it. This allows the grass to regrow naturally, preserving the soil and supporting healthy ecosystems.
