There may be a 2-3 day delay in shipping your order while we dye your yarn, please get in touch if you need your yarn quickly and we can let you know what colours we have ready to ship.
There may be slight variations in tone and shade between skeins, this is part of the process and unique beauty of hand dyeing. We recommend buying enough for your project when ordering and alternating rows from each skein when joining.
Lustrous, smooth and soft, baby suri alpaca is wrapped around a silk core then brushed to produce a supersoft yarn with a light and airy halo. This yarn is wonderfully versatile and can be used in a wide range of projects. It knits up beautifully on its own on a wide range of needle sizes and can be used as a light DK through to chunky. Combine it with our Merino yarns to add warmth and texture without weight to jumpers, scarves and cowls.
