We have a lovely batch of dk weight alpaca and alpaca blend yarn from Aroostook County. The fiber is from alpacas scattered throughout the County with a large portion of the fiber right from the herd at Aroostook Fiberworks. Needless to say, the yarn is spun right there.
Some colorways, such as the medium grey and charcoal are blended with 20% domestic merino. We have two size of skeins: 3.2 oz/230 yards and 3.5 oz/240 yards.
The lighter brown skeins may be considered a dark sand colorway. Each 100% alpaca skein is 2.8 grams and has approximately 200 yards. It is amazingly soft!
The darker brown skeins are a caramel colorway. Each skein is 80% merino blended with 20% domestic merino. Each skein weighs 2.8 grams and has approximately 200 yards.
