Creating wearable Colours in a close relationship with nature - this Palette has been inspired by Fruiting trees & Shrubs, Irish River Meadows and Late Indian Summers.
Only selected baby alpaca fleeces from the Peruvian Andes are used for this incredibly soft and light Alpaca yarn. Spun in Peru, Alpaca Light still keeps with the general slouchy and drapey character of any Alpaca yarn. It is best suited for flowing and body skimming pieces, ideally knitted seamlessly. Unlike its bigger siblings, Alpaca Light is perfect for delicate knits, baby clothes or undergarments.
-------------------------------------------
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.

4ply
100g/ 3.5oz
400m/ 437.4yards
Needle size 2-3mm
Origin: Peruvian Andes

Dyed naturally in Ireland with Catechu
Indigo* - herbaceous plant ( you might get a bit of blue on your hands while knitting - that is easily washed of with soap and even healthy!)
Vegan note: please be aware that we use Lac and Cochineal dyes as well, which would be of animal origin ~ Cochineal** - small louse; Lac*** - the casing made by beetles to hatch and protect their eggs.
One of the softest of our three natural ranges, Puno is made exclusively from Baby Alpaca and is outstandingly soft and perfectly suited for sensitive skin. The plied look gives it a chunkier heavier appearance yet is extremely light and soft to the touch. Puno yarn makes a quick knit and a cosy one to boot!
Snug as a bug – is what you will be, when knitting something in this Alpaca yarn. Due to its slouchy and drapey effect it is best suited for flowing and body skimming pieces, ideally knitted seamlessly. Slouch hats, snoods, blankets or shawl projects are particularly well suited for the Puno Alpaca yarn.

Quito is the yarn you want, when thinking of frosty Autumn walks or a stroll in the snow.
Alpaca is one of the warmest fibre you can choose. Due to its slouchy and drapey effect it is best suited for flowing and body skimming pieces, ideally knitted seamlessly. Alpaca Quito is a single yarn, not plied, and, once knitted, allows for many air pockets to store that extra bit of warmth when needed.
The yarn is silky and soft, slips easily off the needles and allows for a quick knit – when knitting with Alpaca yarn it is advisable to go up by 0.25mm – 0.5mm a needle size to allow the amazing drape to flow and keep its buoyancy.
