Divina is a wonderful yarn quality where two of the world's softest natural fibers; baby alpaca and merino wool meet in an exquisitely soft and airy yarn. The fine fibers are held together by an ultra-thin net made from durable polyamide.
The fine-meshed tube of polyamide is the foundation of the yarn. The tube is either black or white, depending on the color of the fibers. With the help of a special spinning technique, the mix of alpaca and wool is blown into the tube and creates a lovely, full volume. The construction creates a beautiful play of colors when the natural color of the tube shows delicately through and creates Divina’s beautiful, slightly mottled look.
With Divina, you can achieve lots of soft volume nicely balanced with the texture. The yarn has a natural, airy structure that stays nice and yummy when you crochet or knit with it.
Divina is well-suited for both crocheting and knitting, and you can use it for a variety of projects, but we’d like to specially recommend chunky, soft accessories, sweaters, or chunky cardigans. The yarn is also so versatile that you, by varying needle/hook sizes can achieve a high level of flexibility when it comes to knitting tension. Divina is exquisite by itself but can, of course, be combined with thin lace yarns made from, e.g., alpaca or kid silk for an even more exciting play of colors.
The yarn is OEKO-TEX® STANDARD 100 certified (no. 2276-367). Find more information about the certification at https://www.oeko-tex.com/en/

The mixture of the yarn are alpaca, polyamide and wool, it provides warmth and light weight as air. Very easy to crochet and rework if wrong stitches found. Colours are beautiful and very good for making garment or a small inflight blanket for travel.

Wonderfully soft, a dream to crochet with, and you can frog easily. As advised in another review do a swatch as this yarn is super stretchy. An extremely warm yarn I've made two jumpers for myself and they feel gorgeous!
Sylvia
Lovely yarn, can be used with smaller needles/hooks for a more compact effect, or larger ones for a more airy feel. Good for larger pieces to get the warmth without the extra weight
Renata
Beautiful and very soft yarn. Posh cousin of Zafira. So easy to work with, and it grows very quickly. Totally loving this. Hopefully it will be around longer than Zafira.

I recently used this yarn to make a hat for my son and it’s so nice to work with, it’s super soft, crochets up nicely and makes a lovely warm hat.
