A much-loved classic, Drops Alpaca Yarn is crafted from 100% superfine alpaca and spun from three strands to create a beautifully soft and durable yarn. The fibres are completely untreated - meaning they haven’t been exposed to any chemical processing before dyeing – preserving the yarn’s natural qualities and enhancing its texture. An added twist gives it extra strength, making it ideal for all kinds of garments. 

Lightweight yet warm, the natural fibres lend themselves to designs with exceptional shape and a luxurious feel. With its lasting sheen and Oeko-Tex® certification, this yarn is perfectly suited for a wide range of projects - from elegant blouses and skirts to cosy homeware like cushions and throws. 

Available in over 50 rich shades, Drops Alpaca Yarn belongs to the Drops Design family and is a versatile essential no yarn collection should be without.

DROPS Alpaca

I love knitted home. The communication is great and parcels are always shipped quickly. This yarn is really soft. I mainly picked it because I was struggling to get a 4-ply purple that matched a lace weight I had, and I wanted to use them together. It feels nice against the skin and I’m enjoying knitting with it.

I love using the Drops 4 ply range, it’s fabulous for scarves & shawls as it falls wonderfully; whilst still showing up the individual patterns. A fantastic colour palette to choose from too.

DROPS Alpaca

“Lockdown" made me take up simple knitting - as an attempt to do something useful - as well as to relieve boredom. My plan was to make a scarf - as small as possible - as I hadn’t held a knitting needle for 30 + yrs. Having completed one - lacy plus some mistakes which don’t show to much - I am now embarked on the Alpaca - bigger needles - lacy and lovely. The yarn is a dream and who knows what will be next. Mavis.

very happy as always <3
