Misti Alpaca Hand Paint Chunky
Misti Alpaca's popluar chunky weight yarn is now available in a hand paint version. This lightly twisted two-ply chunky alpaca is as soft as any product we’ve had the pleasure to work with. It is just yummy. It knits up quickly and is great for garments and accessories. Made in Peru.

Fell in love with the colors and the softness of this yarn. In fact, i will always go for this yarn when knitting something chunky. This yarn is expensive but you can see and feel why it is so.
