New Yarns from Peru

3.5 lbs of Baby Alpaca Yarn
&
2.2 lbs of Suri Alpaca Yarn

“The alpacas are divided into two breeds: Suri and Huacaya. The major difference lies in the fiber. Huacaya alpaca is the most common and makes up approximately 90% of the alpaca population. Their fiber is crimped and warmer to the touch, and grows outwardly from the body giving huacaya a teddy bear like appearance. The Suri alpaca are less common with silk-like locks draping down their body creating an elegant flowing movement when they walk. Their fiber is valued for its high degree of luster and cool hand lending itself to producing luxurious woven textile goods.”
I am looking forward to using this yarn for future scarfs,
