This superfine alpaca, boucle weaving yarn has added recycled nylon for extra strength, and is wonderful for creating texture in your weaving. This can be used as a warp or weft as it is manufactured especially for weaving. If you are looking to make highly textured, soft fabrics, this is the perfect yarn.
This lovely, soft yarn can be worn next to the skin and mixing the colours will create wonderful effects. The boucle texture consists of small loops of alpaca fibre that are caught in a core strand of yarn. This makes a nubby texture when woven, with attractive loops on the surface of the fabric.
