Hello knitters! I immediately fell in love with this yarn the moment I saw it in the store I frequent. It’s my first time buying an alpaca yarn, and the feel of it is so warm and cozy, plus, it comes in this lovely pastel colors palette, which made it all the more easier to grab it off the shelf. I decided that the best design for this yarn is a simple sweater that will highlight the flow of its colors. Making this piece has also given me the chance to try my hand at knitting this particular scalloped neckline that I had in my mind for a while. It’s a comfortable, oversized fit for you all to wear cozily, and it comes in a wide range of sizes that should hopefully fit most body shapes. I hope you all have a lovely time making it!
