Wool & Forest Alpaca Fluff is a 4-ply, super soft fluffy yarn with a cotton thread that takes less dye and therefore remains light, creating a particularly beautiful effect.
The yarn is voluminous but very light and can therefore be knitted with a single strand. Alpaca Fluff is suitable for anyone who is sensitive and wants to knit and wear soft, fluffy garments such as tops, shawls and accessories with a single strand.
Not suitable for socks!
Please note! Colors on Alpaca Fluff generally appear lighter than on smooth, superwash yarns!
Darker colors on Alpaca Fluff tend to bleed a bit.
Alpaca Fluff has good stitch definition.
Suitable knitting patterns include:
Zoe Shirt by Lotilda
Summer Soft by Anne Ventzel
Note:
Wool & Forest yarns are all hand-dyed with acid dyes.
A characteristic of hand-dyed yarns is that not all skeins are exactly the same and uniform!
Alternating two skeins helps a little to avoid pooling.
Colors appear lighter on non-superwash yarns than on superwash yarns!
Color bleeding can occur, especially with darker colors.
We therefore recommend adding color catchers to the wool bath and washing light and dark colors separately.
Hand washing with a wool detergent without enzymes, e.g., Eucalan, is recommended!
The use of fabric softener and color detergent is strongly discouraged!
The screen display may differ from the actual colors.
The price refers to 1 skein of 100g each.
