Isager Alpaca 2 is a gorgeous blend of wool and alpaca. The yarn is gorgeously soft with the alpaca lending drape which is balanced perfectly with the wool content giving a bit of bounce and stopping the yarn from feeling heavy.
Isager Alpaca 2 is a light 4-ply rather than a laceweight and works beautifully for light yet warm garments and accessories. Perfect for the changeable weather we get in the UK!
Isager Alpaca 2 is also very popular stranded together with other Isager yarns, particularly Isager Silk Mohair and Isager Tvinni. You can choose shades that match or are tonally close, or you can go for highly contrasting colours that result in a marled look to the finished fabric.
Isager Yarn are a Danish brand known for their beautiful, saturated shades and high quality yarns. It really is a joy to work with their products whether you are knitting, crocheting or enjoying other fibre crafts.
