Baby Alpaca Cloud is a dream of a yarn. This yarn has a cotton 4ply core with a halo of baby alpaca spun around it. The meterage on this yarn is amazing since this base knits up as more of a DK weight but has the meterage closer to a fingering weight.

100gr - 380m / 415 yrd
56% Baby alpaca
44% Peruvian pima cotton

Because of how the baby alpaca is spun, you can work this yarn on a multitude of needle sizes. When knitted or crocheted on the larger needle sizes, a light and airy piece will be made. The sample is made on a 4,5mm needle and has a 16 stitch gauge. I've also worked up swatches on 4mm (17 stitch gauge) and 3,5mm (18 stitch gauge). Gauge is very personal and dependent on if you're a tight or loose knitter or crocheter. My supplier their stitch gauge is 23,5 stitch on 3mm and 21 stitch on 4mm. I'm personally not a loose knitter. 

The sample you see in the pictures is a smaller version of the Sunday morning shawl by Espace tricot and only used 24 grams of one 100gr skein. 

When I say this yarn is soft, it’s soft soft. Itch factor differs per person but I can feel no itch whatsoever. This yarn creates a lovely soft and light fabric when knitted or crocheted.

Right now Baby Alpaca Cloud is available in the following colors
-Cherry Blossom
-Petal
-Clover
-Snow (undyed)
-Fog (undyed)

Good to know

During the dye process, I try my hardest to make all the skeins as similar as possible but since this is a handmade product this also means that every skein is one of a kind.

To see the color as accurately as possible, please turn your screen brightness up. Keep in mind that different screens or devices can show the yarn colors slightly differently.

To the nature of hand-dyed yarn, some of these yarns can bleed during their first wash. Make sure to hand wash the projects individually in cold water.
