Product Details

Blue Sky Fibers has blended their scrumptiously soft baby alpaca with lustrous mulberry silk to create Metalico. The natural shades of alpaca are undyed, and the silk gives a sheen reminiscent of precious metal. Knit on a larger needle, this gorgeous yarn will make lovely lacey projects with fabulous drape. On a smaller needle, Metalico acts like a sport weight and knits up into a more substantial fabric for light, warm sweaters and hats. A great choice for everyday luxury!

Beautiful, soft and shiny! A bit fuzzy and splits easy, but worth the hassle to have such softness.

This is a lovely soft yarn to work with. Made a cowl with 4 colors. So pretty and comfortable.

I used this yarn to make the Lexington cowl. It is beautifully soft with a lovely sheen. The yarn splits rather easily but it is worth the effort.

Though this is a beautiful yarn, I found it too thin to work with for the wrap I wanted to crochet, even tho it was the recommended yarn. I wish it came in a worsted weight.
