This fluffy yarn has a lightweight feel but is sure to keep you cosy, with a blend of alpaca, wool and recycled nylon.
Nylon is a synthetic, man-made fibre, which is both durable and easy to care for. Unlike its virgin counterpart, this recycled nylon is made from pre-consumer and post-consumer plastic waste which is deconstructed and then remanufactured into a textile fibre. Recycled nylon also has a lower carbon footprint compared to virgin nylon.
Alpaca is a natural animal fibre. It is soft and fluffy, and also helps to maintain warmth.
