Alpaca-wool blend with a rich, tweedy look and exceptional softness.

What is Ultra Alpaca?

Berroco Ultra Alpaca is a medium from Berroco. Composition: 50% alpaca / 50% wool. One skein holds 215 m of yarn and weighs 100 g.

How the yarn behaves

Half alpaca, half highland wool — soft, drapey, lofty. The alpaca adds quiet halo and softness; the wool keeps shape and stitch definition where pure alpaca would slump. Strong fit for everyday sweaters, cardigans, hats, mittens and Fair-Isle. Hand wash and dry flat. Not superwash, so avoid agitation.
