Your feet will fall in love with LANGYARNS ALPACA SOXX 6-Ply Easywash
Some yarns feel special from the moment you pick them up, and LANGYARNS ALPACA SOXX 6-Ply is one of them. Wonderfully soft, warm and cloud-like, it brings the luxury of superfine alpaca to practical, everyday knitting.
Made from 70% superfine alpaca and 30% hard-wearing nylon, this beautiful yarn strikes a clever balance between indulgent softness and dependable strength. The generous 150g ball contains approximately 390 metres, giving you plenty of yarn for cosy socks, accessories and lightweight garments.
Here’s why I love it:
- Cloud-soft comfort: Superfine alpaca feels beautifully soft and warm against the skin.
- Practical durability: The addition of nylon provides the strength needed for frequently worn knits.
- Easywash convenience: Finished projects can be machine washed on a gentle wool cycle at up to 30°C.
- Generous metreage: Each 150g ball contains approximately 390 metres of yarn.
- Versatile 6-ply weight: Ideal for cosy socks, scarves, shawls, hats, cardigans and sweaters.
The yarn creates a soft, warm fabric with a gentle alpaca halo and a beautiful drape. It feels luxurious enough for special garments while remaining practical enough for pieces you will reach for every day.
I particularly love the Easywash treatment. This innovative process uses enzymes to make the alpaca fibres machine washable without relying on environmentally harmful chemicals. Simply use a wool detergent, choose a gentle wool cycle and leave out the fabric softener.
Whether you are knitting wonderfully warm socks, a snuggly scarf or your next favourite sweater, LANGYARNS ALPACA SOXX 6-Ply makes every stitch feel like a little luxury.
