ALPACA FINO ~ Chestnut DK
Wrap yourself into the warmth and smoothness of Alpaca Fino!
While similar to sheep’s wool, it is warmer, not prickly and has no lanolin making it a great choice for people sensitive to wool.
This DK weight yarn is a real classic - it is smooth with a beautiful gentle sheen. Fino shows off stitch work beautifully and is very easy to wear and take care of. Due to its slouchy and drapey effect it is best suited for flowing and body skimming pieces, ideally knitted seamlessly.
--------------------
All our Alpaca yarns come from the Peruvian Andes
The entire production ~ from Alpaca farmer to the spun yarn ~ is done within Peru, supporting local employment and a low carbon footprint.
