Warm, soft and silky — a yarn for pieces you’ll love wrapping yourself in. ALPAVIA creates a beautiful fur-like texture, while its multicolour shades make even simple stockinette stitch look special.
A soft baby alpaca base is combined with a fluffy polyamide strand that surrounds it with long, silky fibres. Alpaca provides warmth and softness, while the eyelash-style polyamide adds volume and an airy halo.

What to Make
Knit a cosy sweater, a generous cardigan, a vest, a soft hat or a scarf. ALPAVIA looks beautiful on its own and alongside smooth yarns — in contrasting stripes, fluffy collars, cuffs and textured panels.
Play with colours and textures, create layered outfits or make an entire garment with a fur-like finish. Simple stitches let the yarn’s texture take centre stage.

Even More Beautiful After Washing
Our swatches became wonderfully soft and fluffy after washing. For a more pronounced fur-like effect, gently lift the fibres with a soft brush, using light strokes without pressure. Always test this on a washed and fully dried swatch first.
Care
Hand wash gently in cool water with a detergent suitable for wool and alpaca. Do not rub or wring. Gently remove excess water with a towel, reshape and dry flat. We recommend knitting and washing a swatch before starting your project.
Quantities are limited. Choose your favourite colour and purchase enough for your entire project: a restock of this batch cannot be guaranteed.
