DROPS Alpaca is a magnificent 3-ply yarn spun from 100% superfine alpaca, with an extra twist for a durable texture. The alpaca is untreated, meaning it has only been washed and not subjected to any chemical treatment before dyeing. This brings out the best qualities of the fibers while also providing better shape and texture.
DROPS Alpaca is available in a wide range of colors and designs in the DROPS collection. Items made with this yarn are light and comfortable, super soft against the skin, and have a beautiful, characteristic sheen.
This yarn is Oeko-Tex® certified (certificate number 22.HPE.07484), Standard 100, Class II by the Hohenstein Institute. This means it has been tested and is completely free of hazardous substances and is considered safe for both humans and the environment. Class II means the yarn is suitable for direct contact with the skin in large fabrics, such as blouses, shirts, mattresses, etc.
