Järbo's Alpacka Solo is a soft and versatile alpaca yarn that is well suited for warm sweaters, accessories that come close to the skin, and the softest scarves. Alpaca is an excellent alternative to regular wool, as it does not contain lanolin, which may sensitize some skin. Alpaca is very warm, but at the same time breathable and airy.
Järbo Alpacka Solo is also beautifully suited for various lace and textured patterns due to its good twist. It also creates beautiful embroidery.
