How the yarn behaves

Pure superfine alpaca in a finer 4-ply weight — the same softness, halo and flow as the DK version, just lighter. Strong fit for shawls, lightweight tops, baby garments and intricate textured pieces. Drape is significant; structured fitted shapes need careful tension or a tighter swatch. Hand wash cool and dry flat. Block to bring out lace and openwork patterns.
