Lovely, soft, and easy to work with

Really lovely, soft, and easy to work with -- I'm knitting a cowl for my mom. She's in her 80s with sensitive skin, and loves the feel of this yarn. I'll be ordering more of this nice yarn, for sure.

Yarn So Soft It Almost Melts In Your Hands!

Lovely soft, almost buttery, yarn. And for such a fine gauge yarn it has nice loft and knits up beautifully thick and rich (I'm using no. 5 needles for my project). Great seller too! Quick, friendly response to my inquiry about dye lots. I will be buying yarn from her again. Oh, and one more thing: delivery was very fast; my knitting needles were clicking away just a few days after placing order. Thanks, Claudia!

10 stars. Will buy again

Absolutely well worth twice the price. Soft, enjoyable to work. Wonderful quality. In six balls not one knot, nicely even and securely spun yarn that had nice give in working but never thinned too much. Used in a baby blanket with size four needles. (Daughter lives in Florida so I was looking for a looser knit to lighten the blanket). Size one to three is recommended but I was pleased with quality. As with all fuzzy ( I use the term loosely here... since shed was minimum ) piercing the yarn can slow down knitting speed. I found the integrity of the yarn minimized the piercing problem. Great drape.

Best Quality Baby Alpaca Yarn Ever!

This is the best Baby Alpaca Yarn I have ever knit with. I will certainly order more. This was my first order of this product and I am totally satisfied. The yarn is very soft, knits up beautifully and does not split while knitting. I ordered the Ivory and the color is a true ivory, not too white and not yellowish. I am very happy with it.

A must for anyone who needs a good quality yarn to compliment their skills as a fiber artist.

I absolutely love this yarn.! Even after only knitting a small square to check the qauge it was apparent anything made of this yarn would be of high quality. I can't wait until I can design a sweater that will fully complement this beautiful yarn.! The colour (camel) is just how I imagined it and was accurate to the photo. I will be ordering more in the future and highly recommend it to my fellow fiber artists.

Outstanding Quality

This product is heavenly to work with. The lots of yarn are continuous and easy to wind into balls, they handle smoothly while knitting and have even coloring. The final results are a beautiful work of art and so very, very soft. Nothing like pure alpaca!
