Alpaca Yarn — Soft, Warm, Ethically Sourced | String Theory

Alpaca is lighter and warmer than wool. It is gentler than wool against the skin, holds dye like a painting, and ages well. Our alpaca comes from animals raised with care by people paid fairly for their work. You will find Manos del Uruguay's Alpaca Heather, hand-dyed by a Uruguayan cooperative that has employed rural women for over fifty years. You will find soft, plied blends from Ikigai Fiber, and Berroco's Ultra Alpaca for everyday knits. Alpaca yarn for shawls that drape, and sweaters that will keep you cozy.
