Customer Reviews
This is a nice, value-priced alpaca yarn. It’s super soft, but is a more prone to twisting than other brands. I ordered two colors of grey, which work well together. It’s a little bit “hairy” with fibers escaping from the strand more than I’m used to. The weights of the two colors are not quite the same… the Silver is just a bit thinner than the Charcoal. Not a huge deal for the pattern I’m using, but it’s noticeable. Overall, a nice quality yarn at a nice price - especially on sale! Would buy again.
Really enjoyed working with this yarn! Very soft. If I had to give any caution it can be a bit splitting but probably just the nature of the fibers. It was worth it for me.
Be aware apparently Lion Brand no longer makes sure you get the same dye lot for your order. I ordered 5 skeins and received 2 different dye lots. For the black there is a very clear difference in the colors and I cannot work on the project I bought the yarn for.
I was pleased with this yarn. Sometimes regular alpaca yarn comes with little pieces of straw inside which make it annoying against the skin. This yarn is VERY clean. I really enjoyed using it. I made a blanket/throw with it by crocheting a strand of cotton/wool yarn along with the fine baby alpaca yarn, and the blanket will be sturdy, warm, and useful for years to come. I hope I can pass it down to the next generation.
One of my knitting buddies just finished a sweater using the Baby Alpaca and I am trying to finish my present project before beginning my version of the same sweater only mine will have more of the baby alpaca than hers.. Sooooo soft and yummy. Can't wait to start.
I am very happy with the quality of the Baby Alpaca. Delivery was a bit pricey and it did not end up in the project it was intended for, as it is really very soft. I did not knit, but I have woven it into a shawl with Merino, instead. I still need to tidy up the ends, but I'm very happy how it turned out.
