Andean Treasure
Beautiful heathered colors add depth to this super-soft and warm yarn made from baby alpaca fiber. Alpaca fibers are sorted by their diameter (micron count), and the finest fibers are the softest. Baby alpaca is the softest, finest classification of alpaca, and you will definitely enjoy the luxurious feel of this yarn against your skin. The softness is irresistable - count the number of hugs you get when wearing a sweater in Andean Treasure vs. other sweaters, and this one will win, hands down! Exellent for items that are worn close to you - scarves, vests, legwarmers, pullovers, even mittens. Feltable.
