This luxurious blend of Peruvian highland wool, fine alpaca, and nylon is a versatile and durable choice for your sport-weight projects: from head to toe! With the softness of wool and the drape of alpaca, this yarn is at home in sweaters and accessories as it is in thick cosy socks.
Unlike traditional superwash yarns, The Farmer is treated with an innovative Easy Wash process that uses no harsh resins or acids. This means your handknits remain machine washable, gentle on sensitive skin, and kind to the environment. Try it for hardwearing heirloom kids' knits!
