Alpina Soft Winter Sky — Italian merino alpaca cotton blend cord yarn 100g

Alpina Soft is a premium Italian cord yarn crafted for cozy, lightweight, and warm knits.
A soft cotton shell gently wraps fine merino and baby alpaca fibers,
while a touch of polyamide adds durability and elasticity.

The yarn feels completely natural — airy, springy, and warm.
Thanks to its cord structure, it retains warmth while staying breathable and light.
Even after washing or blocking, it keeps its volume and shape beautifully.
