Core Spun Alpaca Rug Yarn

The honey colour has been discontinued as the honey coloured alpaca has moved to another farm.

This yarn is hand made right here in NSW Australia by Sue & Ray in Glenorie who have spent the last 20 years developing & producing this yarn. The local alpaca fibre is core spun with natural cotton twine which makes it fairly rigid, while being very soft to touch.

This is another yarn that I have been using in my collection for over 7 years now. I have knitted a blanket with it, woven many wall hangings and used it to weave the Herringbone Cushions in my book The Woven Home (pictured) 

Also pictured is a weaving that I made where I used the yarn (which had been hand dyed) as a warp for a textured, super chunky weaving. 

Perfect for hand dyeing - this yarn soaks up vivid colours like a treat.
