DROPS Lima is a 4-ply sport yarn made from a blend of 65% wool and 35% superfine alpaca. The fibers are untreated, meaning the wool has only been washed and not subjected to any chemical processes before being dyed. This enhances the fibers' natural properties while also improving their shape and texture.
DROPS Lima is ideal for outdoor garments, such as classic Norwegian sweaters or sporty sweaters, which are generally knitted with a tight knitting tension for better stability and durability. This strong and durable yarn combines with the pleasant and comfortable properties of alpaca. A sporty yarn with a touch of luxury!
This yarn is Oeko-Tex® certified (certificate number 23.HPE.36896), 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.
