DROPS Nepal is a chunky and luxurious yarn, spun in 35% superfine alpaca and 65% wool, a mix that accentuates the softness of alpaca while the wool contributes to the garments’ shape stability. Both fibers are untreated, which means that they are only washed and not exposed to any chemical treatment prior to dyeing. This highlights the fibers’ natural properties, providing better shape and texture qualities.
Spun from 3 strands, which gives an exciting and rustic stitch definition, DROPS Nepal is an easily knitted or crocheted quality which is also perfect for felting, resulting in garments that have an even and soft surface.
DROPS Nepal contains mixed colors, this means the wool is manufactured by carding the colors together before spinning, which gives it a mixed effect.
