Wearing an item made of Malabrigo Silkpaca is like wearing a cloud! This yarn is 70% baby alpaca and 30% silk, which makes it 100% luscious. Soft, silky, with just a bit of a halo. Despite being our thinnest yarn, it is plied and sturdy- perfect for lace projects and very special objects that are sure to become precious heirlooms.

Great for: Lace, shawls, scarves, diaphanous garments

Be sure to get enough yarn to complete your project since each bag is a different dye lot, and skeins may vary from bag to bag.  To ensure random color distribution, work from two balls of yarn at once, alternating a few rows from each ball.
