This could be one of our longest-standing CWC yarns. Jeni remembers it from 2005! It’s warm, thick and squishy. It has a lovely, gentle twist which makes a delightful fabric with even stitch definition. It takes the dye well, and colours are slightly muted due to the alpaca. It looks stunning in the skein both when undyed and dyed. This makes really brilliant accessories – especially things like cowls and scarves. It would make a super-cosy sweater or cardigan, but would be very heavy.
