This stunning cotton thread set covers the full colour spectrum - 25 different shades (a combination of our standard and very fine range) and a massive 250 metres of yarn in total from bright tones to neutrals.
 
2-ply alpaca yarn perfect for repairs to finely knitted garments such as alpaca, cashmere or merino.
 
This luxurious yarn is spun and dyed in Peru using 100% baby alpaca fibre - five colours from this set are actually deadstock yarns leftover from the textile production process making them even more earth-friendly.
 
It contains no added synthetic fibres unlike most darning wool or mending yarns and therefore releases no micro-plastics in the wash. We much prefer to source pure yarn which helps to reduce our impact on the planet, so this one gets a big tick from us!
 
Not only that, but did you know alpaca is ideal for those who are sensitive to other wool fibres? Alpacas do not produce any lanolin at all, which makes pure alpaca wool hypoallergenic and safe for allergy sufferers.  
 
It can be split down to a single strand for mending fine knitwear, or doubled up if you require a thicker yarn for your mending project. 
 
Each card contains approximately 10 m (33 ft) of yarn.
