A combination of baby alpaca, virgin wool and nylon means that the yarn is perfect for cosy socks and countless other knitting ideas. ALPACA SOXX TWEED is the ideal choice when the emphasis is on softness and warmth. Thanks to Easywash treatment, the yarn is machine washable on the wool programme at up to 40 °C. This enzyme treatment for alpaca fibres comes completely without harmful chemicals and is certified by Bluesign, Reach and OEKO-TEX*. As with any yarn, different needle sizes produce different results with ALPACA SOXX TWEED. For garments, we recommend a 4 mm needle size, as indicated on the ball band. This creates a lightweight piece with a beautiful drape. For socks, a 2.5 - 3.5 mm needle size is recommended to ensure a long-lasting result.
