Upcycled Alpaca Blend is a unique fusion of 33% alpaca, 33% wool, 34% acrylic made in Peru. All fibers are carefully selected and repurposed making this yarn more environmentally conscious.
Alpaca will give a nice insulation and a plush texture, wool will provide warmth, durability, whereas the acrylic component will add practicality and structure to your finished piece.
Upcycled Alpaca Blend’s color palette is natural and subdued, reminding of the tranquillity of natural landscapes during the cold seasons. From soft greys, to delicate blues, and earthy tones, your projects will have that beautiful elegance and sophistication.
Imagine creating warm soft sweaters, cardigans, and pullovers, but also timeless accessories such as scarves, headbands, mittens, beanies, neck warmers, and shawls.
Embrace the elegance with Upcycled Alpaca Blend
We recommend securing enough yarn for your project, as shade variations between future dye lots may vary due to the nature of recycled fibers.

I was first drawn to this yarn by the lovely neutrals and upcycled composition but WOW! I'm so in love with this yarn. I made a Zipper Sweater by Le Pull in colour Oat milk (01) and Lichen (18) stripes and I couldn't put it down. The yarn is soft to the touch and definitely passed the squish test. It is a tad scratchy in the finished garment but I imagine this will soften when blocked and worn more. Fine with a t-shirt underneath though. I have since bought another 2 sweater quantities in Wheat (02) and Atlantic blue (14) and cannot wait to get started. I can't recommend tis yarn enough! I will be buying more when I use what I have :)

I love this yarn so much! It's super soft, works up beautifully and comes in a gorgeous range of colours. It's amazing that it's made with upcycled yarn ends left over from production. I would love to use this yarn again, and again, love it!

I would definitely recommend this Upcycled Alpaca Blend yarn. The colour tones are rich and warm! I chose Fuschia, Rose and Pomegranate! It crochets up beautifully! I would definitely choose this yarn again for future projects!

Beautiful Yarn! It’s soft and easy to crochet with. Made with upcycled materials so it’s nice knowing it is sustainable. I have made a crochet granny square blanket and it’s super cosy!

I’ve just received my yarn, it’s beautiful and soft. The colours I’ve chosen are a perfect complement to each other. I can’t wait to start my cardigan
