This is an amazingly soft yet strong base that is a delight to work with in any project. A 4ply construction with 80% superfine alpaca and 20% silk has a sport weight with 287 yards on a 100gram skein. Great for crafters with wool allergies as there is no lanolin in either alpaca or silk. Please hand wash carefully as this is non-superwash and though not as easy to felt as wool, it is possible.
