Rowan Alpaca Classic Rowan Alpaca Classic is an exquisitely soft DK‑weight yarn crafted using a unique construction: a delicate cotton mesh tube filled with luxurious superfine alpaca fibres. This innovative method creates a beautifully lightweight yarn with a romantic halo, exceptional softness, and impressive meterage for its weight. Thanks to its fine, airy structure and rich, intense colour palette, Alpaca Classic is a perfect choice for Fair Isle and colourwork, offering lightness without bulk. It shines in garments, accessories, and warm layers that remain feather‑light and comfortable to wear. When knitted on larger needles, it also produces stunning lace fabrics with a soft, ethereal finish.
