Fonty - Saperlipopette - colors 5014 - marshmallow (price for 1 ball - Baby suri - silk - merino)

SAPERLIPOPETTE is a lovely fluffy yarn, precious and delicate.
Although it contains no goat fleece (mohair), by its appearance and feel it complements the family of mohair and angora yarns.

SAPERLIPOPETTE is a supple and lofty yarn, with a soft and cushy touch, which actually belongs to the alpaca yarn family; it is also an extraordinary alternative for those allergic to mohair.

Entirely natural, it is made of a subtle blend of three exceptional fleeces.

65% baby suri fibres give a misty, cloudy, and fuzzy look.
20% silk adds strength and elasticity qualities and a shiny, silky appearance.
The extra-fine merino fibre completes the whole by enhancing its loft, volume, and softness.

The suri is a member of the alpaca family (species of llamas, branch of camelids), raised semi-wild on the high Andean plateaus. Its fleece is finer, more wavy (somewhat rasta-like, like dreadlocks), and shinier than that of the common alpaca (huacayo).

SAPERLIPOPETTE can be knitted alone, doubled, or combined with another yarn. When knitted alone, SAPERLIPOPETTE is recommended with needles size 3.5 to 4.
