Manos Alpaca Heather
Manos Del Uruguay Alpaca Heather yarn contains 70% wool and 30% Alpaca giving it a soft and heathery feel. The beauty of undyed, naturally-colored alpaca (and its softness) combines into a heathery sport-weight yarn.
Alpaca Heather is a gorgeous blend of wool and alpaca in three natural (undyed) colors (Toast, Beige and Grey) are sold in 100g hanks. Those bases are then hand dyed in their beautiful colors to create a tonal palette, perfect for colorwork. These nine colors are sold in 50g hanks.
