Description
Wool and the Gang describes Alpachino Merino yarn as “softer than a bunny wrapped in candyfloss.” You could try wrapping a bunny in candyfloss to find out how it feels, but we think both you and the bunny will be happier if you just buy some of this yarn instead.
Alpachino Merino yarn brings together two of the silkiest fibres out there, in a chunky, gently twisted yarn that is soft and squishy. Inspired by the rainbow landscapes of Peru, this 100% natural beauty is also sustainably sourced. It has a super wearable, easy-to-knit weight which makes it perfect for year-round stitching. Did we mention it is incredibly soft? It’s great for anything from staple sweaters and cardigans to bandanas and beanies. Because it is so easy to work with, it is ideal for beginners.
