This four-ply alpaca sock wool is characterized by popular color combinations and a robust yet comfortable fiber combination . It is ideal for knitting and crocheting socks, stockings or slippers or even accessories such as leg warmers, which should be particularly durable and yet comfortable, warm and breathable.
Our APU KUNTUR alpaca wool is produced in Peru under strict human-ecological standards - it comes from traditional animal husbandry and is guaranteed mulesing-free. Only the finest fibers meet our high quality standards and are used for our yarn. You can see it – and you will also notice it when you knit. Try it out for yourself! Available in several beautiful colors.
Superwash is a chemical treatment to remove the fiber scales and then coat them with a polymer, which prevents the wool from felting and shrinking. Be inspired by our sock wool made from alpaca and sheep's wool: comfort, optical properties and technical advantages such as moisture regulation speak for themselves. Alpaca is an intelligent fiber. As a hollow fiber, it has excellent thermal insulation properties. Its unique temperature regulation makes it comfortable to wear in both winter and summer. It does not scratch or crease and is particularly suitable for sensitive and delicate skin. Sheep's wool makes this yarn particularly robust, especially when it comes to knitting socks.
Care instructions: We recommend hand washing or dry cleaning. When washing in the machine, only wash on the wool cycle at 30 degrees Celsius and do not spin the machine. Do not wring the item afterwards and leave it to dry lying down. This way you can enjoy your handiwork for a long time.
