Brushed Baby Suri Alpaca with Silk

WestYarn Luxe Suri is a lace weight Brused Baby Suri Alpaca (75%) and Mulberry Silk (25%). Hand dyed in the Netherlands with professional dyes. Every skein is 300 m / 50 gram, NYLON FREE!  Gauge (stocking stitch): 18 sts x 25 rows over 10cm (4 inches). Recommended Needle Size: 3 - 6 mm needles.

Lustrous, smooth and soft baby suri alpaca is wrapped around a silk core then brushed to produce a supersoft yarn with a light and airy halo. This yarn is wonderfully versatile and can be used in a wide range of projects. It knits up beautifully on its own on a wide range of needle sizes and can be used as a light DK through to chunky. Combine it with a fingering/sock weight or DK weight yarn to add warmth and texture without weight to jumpers, scarves and cowls.

All yarns have excess fibres (from production) that might come off as lint or shedding, in various amounts, depending on the fibres used and how the yarn is spun. Brushed yarns have more of these loose fibres than other yarns, and tend to shed more, so some shedding is to be expected with this yarn. It's a non superwash kind of yarn, wash cold and wring carefully.

Dyed in an environmentally friendly manner with acid dyes, carefully washed in unscented wool wash and sent in skeins unless otherwise requested. I try to design my dye schedule in such a manner that I can re-use dye baths several times per session and lower my environmental impact.

All colorways are dyed on order, it takes one week to prepare your high quality WestYarn Luxe Suri (super soft brused baby suri alpaca with silk) skeins.

The listing is for 1 skein of yarn (unless mentioned otherwise). Photo's of multiple skeins shows the comparison between skeins and/or yarn bases. If you want more skeins or other colorways please contact me.

Colors may slightly vary on every device. I photograph the yarn with natural light.
