Alpaca is a beautiful yarn made from 100% alpaca. Alpaca fibers are not treated: this means that they are only washed and do not undergo any chemical treatment before coloring. In this way, the natural properties of the alpaca fiber are maximized, while ensuring a better shape and quality of the fabric. This quality is 3-ply spun with an additional twist to make it more durable and is available in a huge assortment of colors, from the brightest to the most subdued. Intense, natural colors and mixed shades. The latter are produced by carding the colors together before spinning, in order to obtain the mix effect. For the Alpaca yarn there is a wide, complete and varied choice of patterns within the DROPS collections. The garments made with this yarn are light and comfortable, very soft in direct contact with the skin and have a pleasant shiny appearance.MADE in Peru. * Do not forget that the display of colors may vary from one screen to another and also the shades may vary from one color bath (Dyelot) to another (check the band of the ball of yarn).

Which yarn can I match it with?
For a green and super soft yarn combination, try working together DROPS Alpaca 9030 and DROPS Kid-Silk 47.
The result has a knitting tension of 17 stitches = 10 cm, using a 5,5 mm needle, which is a great match for patterns designed for DROPS Air, or more generally, Yarn Group C.
