Island Blend Fine | Luxury Merino, Alpaca & Silk Knitting Yarn

Luxurious fingering-weight yarn spun from Falkland Merino, baby alpaca and silk. Soft, luminous and beautifully defined – perfect for refined garments, shawls and accessories.

A luxurious fusion of nature’s softest fibres

Rowan Island Blend Fine is an exquisite lightweight yarn spun from a carefully balanced mix of 70% Falkland Island Merino wool, 15% baby alpaca, and 15% silk. Each strand brings its own character: the merino lends warmth and bounce, alpaca adds a gentle halo and softness, while silk infuses a subtle sheen and drape. Together they create a yarn that feels indulgent in the hand and produces fabrics with a refined, almost luminous quality.

Why You'll Love It
