This fine, ultra-thin, 2-ply 100% alpaca yarn by Isager is spun and dyed in Peru. A wonderful stash enhancer, this yarn can be used individually for shawls, scarves or vests but is primarily designed to be knitted together with other yarns. Combined with other yarns Alpaca 1 adds softness, a more interesting structure and the opportunity to create new shades when combined with another colour. One continuous strand of Alpaca 1 can also add unity and bind colours together in a work where many colours are used. Larger needles can be used if this is needed for your pattern of choice.
