Whatever you make with Silkpaca will feel like you are wearing a cloud! This yarn is 70% baby alpaca and 30% Mulberry silk, which makes it 100% luscious, soft, silky, with just a bit of halo. Even though this yarn is thin, the ply is sturdy making Silkpaca perfect for lace projects and special objects that are sure to become heirlooms. Being as this yarn is hand-dyed, each skein can vary in color, even within the same dye lot.
