Katia Silk-Alpaca is a luxurious and sophisticated lace yarn. A soft alpaca fibre is spun around a silky core yarn, giving the yarn its beautiful, airy halo. Made from high-quality alpaca fibre and prestigious Mulberry silk, this lightweight yarn is perfect for knitting delicate and elegant sweaters and tops, as well as luxurious accessories. Thanks to its lightness and breathability, the yarn is suitable for year-round wear – a lovely short-sleeved alpaca top would be equally beautiful for both mother and daughter.
Silk-Alpaca can also be knitted double or combined with another fine yarn. We especially recommend Concept by Katia Alpaca Lace as a companion yarn. Our selection of Silk-Alpaca includes four elegant shades of beige and grey.
Fil Katia S.A is a Spanish manufacturer of craft yarns, established in 1951. Silk-Alpaca yarn is spun in Peru according to Fair Trade principles.
