Apple Fiber Studio Cortland – Suri Alpaca & Silk Some yarns feel like a whisper. Cortland is one of them. This exquisite lace weight yarn blends 74% suri alpaca with 26% silk for a fiber experience that is truly unlike anything else. Suri alpaca — affectionately known as the "silky" breed — produces a fiber with a gentle, luminous halo that's more substantial than mohair yet impossibly soft. Paired with silk, the result is a yarn that catches the light, drapes beautifully, and feels like air against your skin. Hand-dyed in Apple Fiber Studio's signature colorways, each skein of Cortland is a small work of art. What Makes Cortland Special Featherlight lace weight — perfect for shawls, wraps & delicate accessories Luminous fuzzy halo adds soft color and texture to any project Stunning when used alone; adds magic when held with another yarn Hand-dyed in small batches for rich, tonal color depth Silk content adds sheen, drape, and a silky-smooth hand feel Yarn Specs Fiber: 74% Suri Alpaca, 26% Silk Weight: Lace (#0) Yardage: 328 yards / 50g Needle Size: US 1–3 (2.25–3.25mm) recommended; size up for a more open fabric Care: Hand wash cold, lay flat to dry Dyed by: Apple Fiber Studio Whether you're knitting a gossamer shawl or adding a halo to your next colorwork project, Cortland delivers an experience as beautiful as the finished piece.
