This yarn is a joy to knit with. I make stranded mittens which my customers love for their softness and wonderful colours. The yarn is plied but not too tightly so the fluffiness factor is not destroyed by knitting even w #1’s (for wind resistance) although I usually use 2’s for best results. The yarn is also fantastic for lace knitting little mitts and so on. My only complaint is that I must use two skeins (50 grams each) for one pair of mittens leaving one nearly entire skein Order...

Review summary
Shoppers praise the soft feel and lovely colours of this alpaca yarn. Many say it knits up well and shows stitch definition. Complaints are rare: one reviewer found it needs more skeins than expected per item, and another noticed uneven knitting at first.

love this yarn!@ very affordable, pleasant to knit with, wears like iron, have several colorways
Soft beautiful alpaca
I used ultra alpaca light to knit the garden cardigan and it knit up just wonderfully. Perfect for any season. Nice and soft and you can see the pattern details. I will definitely use it again.
Lovecrafts excellent service, products and value
Soft and lovely to work with. Cant afford to knit up large garments, but for small ones I definitely can. Got two and a half headbands out of this - goes a long way.
Would buy again. Probably soon.
Nice quality yarn. Soft and feels good in your hands knitting.
Tres bon site de commande en ligne
Parfait....doux et léger, couleur tel que représentée à l'écran, se tricote très bien
Lovely yarn - very soft and the colour is great. Tension square done and it knits up lovely.
The yarn is perfect for my crochet project of a poncho. A gorgeous color blue and a soft, strong yarn. And, I love the organza bags that the yarn comes in!
Wouldn’t go anywhere else
