This luxurious 3 Ply worsted weight yarn is spun from 100% alpaca. It is an amazingly soft, warm, and strong yarn. You will never want to use wool or acrylic yarn again. Made from our alpaca raised on our farm in Southeastern Indiana. We raise the alpaca, shear them then spin and dye the yarn in our fiber mill located on the farm. While we do our best to reduce the possibility of bleeding there is always a slight chance bleeding may occur with hand dyed items. Use cool water when washing and add a small amount of vinegar to preserve colors. Fiber Content: 100% Alpaca Weight: Worsted Ply: 3 Yardage: 150 Care: Hand wash, lay flat to dry
