I used two skeins of Mamacha Peruvian alpaca wool blend that is super soft! I also used a 9 mm... Continue Reading →
I used three balls of Rowan alpaca classic yarn to make this simple lace scarf.
I finally finished my very first woven project. I now have some experience and will be making many more items on my Ashford 20" Knitters loom. I used a hair twister to twist the fringe and it worked well!

Created this on my circular knitting machine. The alpaca makes a really soft scarf! I got this yarn from Knit n Purl in Myrtle Beach.

Made this pram blanket out of luxurious alpaca yarn.
