Worth knowing about the alpaca yarn

You may have already guessed that the alpaca yarn comes from alpacas, which is an animal that in many ways resemble llamas. The difference is that an alpaca has thicker fur, where especially the undercoat is considered attractive as a luxurious yarn all over the world. The Alpaca yarn is perfect to use for a variety of clothes, especially if you want to create a piece of clothing for your grandchildren. The Alpaca yarn is extremely soft and comfortable to wear, especially for the youngest members of the family. We have a wide selection of different patterns for babies and children so that you can get started knitting beautiful, warm clothes for the grandchildren immediately.
