This yarn is three ply with using our lovely animal Calvin.
Island Alpaca yarn is one of the most precious yarns you will find. Using the Island Alpaca harvest from our spring shearing, this yarn is spun at a local New England mill using only environmentally safe products.
This mini-mill uses a state-of-the-art fiber washer and fiber separator which is used to eliminate vegetation, guard hair and much shorter "second-cuts" if there are any. This process increases dramatically, the "comfort-factor", optimizing the overall quality of the yarn, leave you with softest end-product available.
Treat yourself or a friend to this wonderful, "home grown" yarn. All skeins are labeled with the name and a photograph of the alpacas that created this yarn. Hand-wash in cold water using a mild soap. Do not agitate or use chlorine bleach.
