Valley Yarns Stockbridge
The alpaca/wool blend in Valley Yarns Stockbridge reminds us of a favorite yarn that was discontinued by another manufacturer a few years back. Available in many gorgeous colors, this yarn is soft to the touch and has a lovely hand. Garments made from Valley Yarns Stockbridge will be cozy, light and have a nice drape. Made in Peru.

Comments about Valley Yarns Stockbridge:
I ordered this yarn when another, more expensive yarn was out of stock in the color that I wanted. I can't imagine how much better the big-name yarn could be. This one is soft, pleasant to work with and a great value for the money. Additionally, the color choices are great. I would not hesitate to use it again.

Comments about Valley Yarns Stockbridge:
I recently made a shawl with Stockbridge. The natural colour is so attractive. The yarn was smooth and easy to crochet with. I find it soft and not scratchy at all to wear, and I have sensitive skin. I bought it when it was Steve's Deal of the Day, which made it even more economical. Lovely yarn.

Comments about Valley Yarns Stockbridge:
I adore Stockbridge. I've made a sweater with it and enjoyed knitting every stitch (which is pretty rare for me, as I'm more of a product than process knitter). It comes in all of my favorite colors. It's an amazing value as well (as are all Valley Yarns). I'm planning a second sweater in Stockbridge and have the yarn waiting in my stash. Whenever I go to WEBS I have to hold myself back from buying more---but I stop myself because I have that second sweater yet to knit!
Comments about Valley Yarns Stockbridge:
One of my favorite yarns of all time. The yarn strikes a wonderful balance between being soft (definitely next-to-skin soft for me and most folks that are not wool-phobes) and wearing incredibly well. I made a cute striped cardigan with this yarn, and have worn it regularly (several times a week, at least) for over a year. There is nary a pill in sight, which is amazing to me. And, remembering back to when I was knitting with it, the yarn is wonderfully easy and pleasant to work with. Nice and smooth through the fingers with just a touch of halo from the alpaca fibers. I am extremely pleased with the yarn, both for the soothing knitting experience and the excellent finished product. Now... if only they would come out with more colors. Please?

This is a good, basic worsted wool. Easy to handle, and lovely colors.

I've just started working with some Stockbridge I had in my stash, and am loving working with it. As I began my small project, I thought I'd like to make a sweater with it, and then I realized that it would also be a great substitute for another yarn that I've always liked (an much more affordable)! ;)
Comments about Valley Yarns Stockbridge:
Stockbridge is my preferred yarn for just about everything -just the right weight for sweaters and jackets, good saturated colours (just wish there were more of them) so excellent for colour work, wears well, and a pleasure to hold when knitting because it is so soft.
Comments about Valley Yarns Stockbridge:
Great to knit with -- springy and soft, and wears pretty well. I have a three-year-old vest that shows no pilling at all. It is a bit on the scratchy side, but I'm a delicate flower. I've used both dark red and charcoal and the colors are deep and saturated -- very nice. The alpaca gives it a slightly fuzzy halo effect. Nice yarn.

Used for basic, plain constructed sweater. Good drape. Doesn't split. A big plus in my book. Alpaca makes it special.
