  • Børstet Alpakka

    Børstet Alpakka by Sandnes Garn offers a soft, fluffy, light, and airy yarn by twisting brushed alpaca around a nylon thread.

    As a chunky yarn, Børstet Alpakka is perfect for knitting cosy sweaters to see you through the colder months, and that is because alpaca is three times warmer than ordinary wool. The fibre is hollow and breathable, so it feels warm in cold temperatures and cool in warm ones.

    Fibre: 96% Brushed Alpaca, 4% Nylon
    Length: 110m (120 yds) / 50 g ball
    Needle Size:  5 - 7mm
    Gauge: 12 - 16 sts = 10cm
    Care: machine washable at 30
