Warmth without Weight!

This is the slogan of Misti Alpaca, our latest yarn supplier. You have to touch it to believe the other slogan: "The softest yarn ever". Wow, this is 100% Peruvian Baby Alpaca at its best.

We are pleased to introduce a new line of yarns: Misti Alpaca Chunky and Misti Alpaca Handpaint Chunky. This chunky weight 100% Baby Alpaca offers next-to-the-skin softness and comes in generous 100 gram skeins. It will knit up quickly and beautifully into scarves and accessories, sweaters, and is soft enough for baby and children's items. The solid skeins sell for $16.95 and the hand painted skeins retail for $24.95. You may want to visit www.mistialpaca.com and learn more about these unique animals.

Our Misti Alpaca sales rep Miriam Leth-Espensen sent us two of her patterns: Simple Sideways West in Garter, and Sideways Stripes in Orchid Sweater. Alison is checking them out and we will be glad to give them to you soon.
