Alpaca/Seacell/Silk - Hand-dyed - 50g

60% alpaca/20% seacell/20% tussah silk.

This blend of fibres is a super soft and fluffy mix of alpaca, silk and seacell, which is great for those fibre lovers who are allergic to wool.

Seacell is derived from sustainably sourced seaweed, and is purported to have beneficial qualities for the skin. It's soft, silky and a delight to spin.

Alpaca fibre characteristics are:

• it's hollow, which makes it light and extremely warm.
• it has no elasticity, making it perfect for drapey, flowing garments such as shawls and scarves.
• it has a relatively long staple length, which makes it easy to spin.

The addition of silk adds strength and sheen to this lovely blend.

Each braid weighs 50g
