ISAGER ALPACA 2 is a two-thread yarn made up of 50 % wool and 50 % alpaca. The main feature of this yarn is its softness, which makes it very suitable for baby clothes. Used individually, this yarn is also wonderful for an adult sweater, but it should be remembered that due to its softness, this yarn is best suited for models that are not exposed to too much stress. A soft yarn will never be as durable as a yarn spun from firmer wool, which may have been spun more firmly. The Alpaca 2 is great for shawls, shawls and delicate uppers and is often knitted together with other Isager Yarns.

This yarn is one-thread knitted ideal for fluffy, soft knitting models and for baby clothes that are not exposed to extreme use. A higher knitting strength and, of course, needle strength results together with spinner knitted. Together with Alpaka 1 it will be a bit more voluminous, and together with Silk Mohair extremely cuddly and much more voluminous.
Can also be processed with the knitting machine, and can be used wonderfully for weaving.
