Alpa Cotton is a blown yarn, and for this reason very light and impalpable. These are fine alpaca fibers blown inside a Makò cotton cage, an Egyptian cotton with very long fibers, undyed. It is a yarn entirely produced in Italy, respecting the environment and the animal. Touching it will make you fall in love with its softness and warmth! Works well with: all stitches.
