New England Woolens · Undyed Natural Fiber
An exceptionally soft, naturally undyed yarn with an easy-to-tell origin story and the versatile weight knitters reach for again and again. Grown and spun at elevation in the Peruvian Andes, it brings premium hand feel, quiet natural color, and responsible sourcing to your yarn wall.

The yarn
This four-ply DK yarn balances the refined softness customers expect from baby alpaca with the practical yardage and familiar gauge they want for real projects. Its undyed natural-white color highlights the fiber itself: softly luminous, timeless, and easy to coordinate with a wide range of palettes.
Alpaca is naturally lanolin-free, moisture-wicking, temperature-regulating, and odor-resistant. The finished yarn has a soft halo and cozy hand without hiding the clean definition of its plied construction.
