Alpaca Fino is an extremely fine and soft yarn made from 100% pure baby alpaca wool.
Alpaca Fino is a 4 ply yarn with even stitch definition which is perfect for all kinds of stitch patterns, but knits up equally well in stockinette stitch. It is suitable for all sorts of projects from warm sweaters and cardigans to scarves and hats.
Alpaca Fino is a soft yarn and like all alpaca yarns it is extremely hard wearing. Garments will keep their shape with very little pilling. Because alpaca contains very little lanolin, it is perfect for people with the most sensitive skin.
