ABOUT THE YARN:
An exciting “blow yarn” made from soft baby alpaca and cozy merino wool - this quality has a unique construction where instead of spinning, the fibers of baby alpaca and merino wool are blown into a tube together. Garments made in this yarn are about 30-35% lighter than those made with conventional spun yarns of the same thickness.

DROPS Air is a light, airy yarn that feels beautiful against the skin, which makes it perfect for sweaters, jackets and accessories, with both texture and cable patterns. Garments made in DROPS Air are totally itch-free, which means everyone can wear them!

Hand Wash, cold max 30°C/86F. Dry Flat/Feltable
