Sierra Andina | 100% Extrafine Alpaca
Pure extra-fine alpaca in a sumptuously soft DK weight. Warm, lightweight, and luxurious - perfect for elegant garments and timeless accessories.
Sierra Andina is pure indulgence in yarn form. Spun from 100% extrafine alpaca, it has an irresistibly soft handle and a natural sheen that gives every stitch a touch of elegance. Light yet insulating, alpaca offers luxurious warmth without heaviness, making it ideal for garments and accessories you’ll want to wear close to the skin.
Unlike sheep’s wool, alpaca fibre contains no lanolin, making Sierra Andina a wonderful option for those with wool sensitivities or allergies. The fine twist creates a smooth, even fabric with excellent stitch definition, perfect for both simple stocking stitch and intricate lace or cables. Its drape and softness make it especially suited to shawls, wraps, cardigans and sweaters, while its warmth ensures comfort through the coldest months.
Available in a refined palette of classic and contemporary shades, this yarn is a timeless choice for knitters who appreciate natural fibres of the highest quality.
- Hollow fibre alpaca wool, warmer than classic sheep wool.
- Thermal, breathable, a thermoregulator.
- Hypoallergenic, lanolin-free, ideal for those allergic to sheep's wool.
- Annual shearing in spring for the well-being of the animal and the quality of the fleece.
- Selected from certified and eco-sustainable farms.
