Inspired by the majestic Andes, our Andes Yarn captures the rugged beauty and rich culture of this iconic mountain range. The snow-capped peaks and steep cliffs create a natural canvas of breathtaking colors where the sky meets the mountains, creating a dance of natural colors.
Crafted from superfine alpaca and wool, it blends the softness and warmth of alpaca with rustic wool charm. Using a woolen spun technique, the yarn achieves remarkable lightness, making it ideal for versatile projects. With excellent stitch definition and a unique tweed effect, it adds delightful specks of color, reflecting the Andes' spirit of adaptation and resilience, as well as the cultural richness of Peru.
