Malabrigo Silkpaca 052 Paris Night

Hand-dyed in Peru, Malabrigo yarns are an absolute favorite amongst fiber artists.  Spun with soft, high-quality fibers, Silkpaca is a beautiful blend of baby alpaca & silk.

The plied, lace weight yarn has polished stitch definition for lace shawls & wraps, scarves & fine gauge garments.  The baby alpaca gives the yarn an exquisite hand & delicate halo, while silk creates a luminous sheen.  An impressive range of tonal & variegated colorways provide plenty of project inspiration.

Silkpaca is delicate & cloud-like held alone, however it is also lovely held double stranded or along with a favorite yarn to bulk up gauge or add depth of color.

Artisan hand-dyed yarns have natural color variations from skein to skein. Our team will do their best to choose the best matching skeins for your order. Here are some tips to get the best results when knitting with hand-dyed yarns:

• Purchase enough yarn for your entire project
• Alternate skeins by knitting two rows from one skein, then two rows from another skein. This will help to blend color differences.
