Each 25g ball provides 140 meters of yarn, optimized for 5mm needles to enable faster knitting of both small and large garments. Perfect as a standalone yarn or paired for extra softness, it comes packaged sustainably and includes digital pattern inspiration, making it a top choice for discerning knitters seeking quality and style. ## Description DROPS Brushed Alpaca Silk is a luxurious blend of brushed, superfine alpaca and subtle, shiny, mulberry silk. Being feather light and surprisingly warm, this aran-weight yarn is suitable for both small and large garments, and it can be knitted relatively fast on larger needles. This yarn is also great as an effect yarn, so try working it together with other yarn for extra soft and lovely results. Review: Recommend - Very soft and good quality yarn, at a relatively affordable cost (when compared with other similar brands). I've tried 2 different colours (off white and pink sand), both came back really nice, will be coming back for more. Very helpful including a return slip in the package, and a QR code for a link to different knitting patterns for inspiration. Also came in an eco-friendly bag which was good. Review: Screen colour is a different pink shade. This is pinky lavender - Colour is slightly different to on screen, its a slight pinky lavender instead, however when viewing on other websites like drops and wool warehouse it does show this same dye lot as being pinky lavender. Its super soft, and fine to the touch and should be nice and workable into something wearable. Its about the same price as wool warehouse and knitting and the city. ## Features - DROPS Brushed Alpaca Silk is a luxurious blend of brushed, superfine alpaca and subtle, shiny, mulberry silk.
