Alpaca lovers will melt for our selection of alpaca and alpaca blend yarns. They include 100% alpaca in lace, worsted and chunky weights. In the same vein is Pastaza, a wool-llama blend that is great for sweaters.

If you're looking for silk, we have several blends. Silky Wool from Elspeth Lavold is a best-seller, in many heathered colors. Lion & Lamb is a premium blend from Lorna's Laces. It's unplied, hand-dyed, soft and absolutely delicious. Silk Garden from Noro is shot through with earthy variegated colors.

For something truly different, consider qiviut. This rare fiber is gathered from the Arctic musk ox. It's lightweight and incredibly warm.

For pure luxury, we have 100 percent cashmere. And if you're looking for soft, don't forget our several varieties of Angora and mohair.
