Gossamer baby alpaca-wool lace weight. Incredibly soft for intricate shawls wraps and delicate lacework.
What is Alpaca Cloud?
Knit Picks Alpaca Cloud is a lace from Knit Picks. Composition: 70% baby alpaca / 30% wool. One skein holds 200 m of yarn and weighs 25 g.
How the yarn behaves
Pure baby alpaca laceweight with a soft halo and very fluid drape. Warmth far above what the weight suggests, thanks to alpaca's hollow fibre core. Limited memory, so finished pieces flow rather than hold structure — favour shawls, stoles, light wraps and openwork. Blocks open dramatically; swatch wet to see the real lace pattern. Can be held doubled for fingering-weight projects. Hand wash cool and dry flat; block to shape.
