This yarn is a joy to knit with. I make stranded mittens which my customers love for their softness and wonderful colours. The yarn is plied but not too tightly so the fluffiness factor is not destroyed by knitting even w #1’s (for wind resistance) although I usually use 2’s for best results. The yarn is also fantastic for lace knitting little mitts and so on. My only complaint is that I must use two skeins (50 grams each) for one pair of mittens leaving one nearly entire skein Order...

Love the feel of this yarn
I love the color and how soft it is. The color was exactly what i expected. Definitely worth checking out and I will definitely order more stuff soon.
Soft beautiful alpaca
I used ultra alpaca light to knit the garden cardigan and it knit up just wonderfully. Perfect for any season. Nice and soft and you can see the pattern details. I will definitely use it again.
Would buy again. Probably soon.
Nice quality yarn. Soft and feels good in your hands knitting.
