DROPS Sky is an exceptionally soft and lightweight DK-weight yarn with a luxurious blend of 74% baby alpaca, polyamide and wool. It combines the natural warmth and softness of baby alpaca with added durability and elasticity, creating a beautifully light yarn that feels wonderfully soft against the skin.

Its distinctive tube-like construction creates beautifully even stitches, a soft fluffy halo and lightweight fabrics with an elegant drape. The construction also makes it particularly effective for textured stitches, cables and lace patterns, while keeping finished garments light and comfortable.

Ideal for knitting and crochet projects such as sweaters, cardigans, shawls, scarves, hats and baby garments, DROPS Sky is a wonderful choice when you want exceptional softness, warmth without unnecessary weight and a luxurious finish.
