This yarn is a unusual blend of Malin Head Alpaca wool, combined with Blue Face Leicester. The result is a luscious, beautifully balanced rustic yarn that combines warmth, softness, and stability in a way that is optimised for the Donegal climate.
It is beautifully drapey (but the 50% wool gives it sufficient bounce to be practical) and next to skin soft, perfect for children’s balaclavas or hats (check out Ailbiona’s Mariner’s Hood) or for sweaters, (check out Ailbiona’s Treilis Sweater- a thing of beauty! it was also designed in this yarn).
Perfect for many knitting occasions!
