70% Alpaca 30% Mulberry Silk 4ply 400 m
Code: ALPACA-SILK -400Product detailed description
Very soft yarn and suitable even for those who suffer from allergies to sheep wool! It does not contain lanolin, which is an allergen for some people. Alpaca wool is also warmer than sheep wool because the fibre is hollow and therefore has excellent thermal insulation properties. It comes from alpaca llamas, which are mostly from Peru, for our yarns only the finest fibre is chosen, and that from small baby alpacas:) I recommend it even for the most sensitive individuals, the yarn is suitable for scarves, shawls and children. Its softness is further emphasized by the admixture of mulberry silk, so it is truly a luxury product!
Composition: 70% baby alpaca and 30% mulberry silk, yarn has no superwash treatment, hand wash preferably with wool detergent. Machine washable, but only on the wool/silk programme. Alpaca can't tolerate temperature shock, it could get moldy, it is possible to heat it to a high temperature when dyeing, but slowly, be especially careful when soaking, the temperature must be the same!!! Alpaca must also not be ironed.

The yarn should always be soaked before dyeing, ideally in water with vinegar or citric acid if it is to be dyed with acid-based dyes or at least with a mild detergent designed for woollen fabrics.
