Baby-soft, machine-washable, and bursting with color. Big Bad Wool Weepaca is a 50/50 blend of superwash merino and baby alpaca that manages to be both incredibly practical and gen uinely luxurious. The merino brings structure and washability; the alpaca brings cloud-soft warmth and a subtle halo. The result is a worsted-weight yarn that knitters reach for again and again—especially when the project needs to survive real life.

What to Knit Wee Cardi by Donna Higgins Baby Bear by Julie Weisenberger Anita Mitt(en)s by Donna Higgins The Go-To Gift Yarn Weepaca has earned its place as one of our most-gifted yarns—and for good reason. It's the yarn you reach for when you want the recipient to actually use what you've made. Soft enough for a newborn, durable enough for an active toddler, and easy enough to care for that even non-knitters won't ruin it in the wash. It works just as well for adult hats, cowls, and quick sweaters as it does for baby knits, making it one of the most versatile yarns in the shop. Explore More Shop all worsted weight yarns Show more
