100% Baby Alpaca Yarn Wool Set of 3 Skeins DK Weight - Made in Peru - Heavenly Soft and Perfect for Knitting and Crocheting (Heather Lilac, DK)

I wasn't expecting this yarn to be dyed but be warned- it is. I ordered a few different colors and so far while wet blocking, the dark grey has bled the most. I don't get the sense that the dye will rub off while the product is being worn because I didn't notice anything while knitting, but I was a little disappointed that I didn't know about this before.Besides that, this yarn is pretty great. It's thinner than I wanted it to be but it's very soft and everyone is enjoying their presents. I doubled up for a lot of my projects so it took between 4 and 6 skeins for a scarf and about 2 or 3 for a hat, doubled. Definitely not cheap, even for alpaca wool in my experience. It is definitely alpaca wool though. All in all, I'll keep buying this for projects because it's accessible and available, but it doesn't beat my local alpaca farm wool in my opinion.

Skeins were VERY small for the price. Would not order again.

This yarn is wonderful. Once you use Alpaca yarn, all other yarns become inferior lol. For real, every year for many now, I crochet Christmas gifts for everyone on my list and the alpaca is just incredibly soft. This year I found this Alpaca for a great price, I am used to paying much more. But the quality is amazing. So so soft, absolutely no itch. I have had no knots or rejoins in any skeins I’ve used- and I’m going on skein 9. This yarn is consistent as in no thin or uneven spots in the skein. And as stated a worsted four yarn, and I’ve crocheted all these ear warmers with a 5mm hook and I’m happy with them. With any project just make sure you try and gauge how much yarn your project calls for. For reference, I can crochet four full ear warmers, with three skeins of this yarn on a 5mm hook, and have a little yarn left over. They are 19in long and about four inches wide. Overall this is the best price and quality yarn. So soft and luxe.

Love the feel of this yarn.I ended up doubling two strands to work with it to make a baby blanket, it is super fine. With doubling it became a little pricey even for a baby blanket. It did turn out ok.

They are more a DK weight, but with 2 strands my afghan worked up beautifully.This yarn is extremely soft and a pleasure to work with.

This yarn resulted in a very soft and luxuriously hat. My only concern was that the yarn was very thin. I used three strands and size 5 1/2 needles to make the hat and it still was not bulky at all. It would be a perfect yarn for something very thin made with very small needles.

This is so thin that I cannot use it in the worsted pattern I had planned. This is more of a sport weight.

I’ve worked with baby alpaca from a competitor. This stuff is SUPER SLIPPERY and has a slimy feel to it. It’s like acrylic but says it’s alpaca. Save your money and purchase elsewhere.
