50g. 70% Baby Alpaca, 30% Silk. DK.
£12.49
Mulberry Soft DK brings together 70% baby alpaca and 30% silk to give you a yarn that feels genuinely special against your skin — and against your needles. Whether you’re working on a delicate lace shawl or a fitted ribbed jumper, this blend rewards careful knitting with a fluid drape and a subtle sheen that catches the light beautifully.
Baby alpaca lends a soft, slightly halo’d warmth without the scratchiness of standard wool, while the silk content gives the yarn a smooth, weightier quality and crisp stitch definition. It knits up evenly on 4mm needles, making it a pleasure to work with for a cabled wrap or a lightweight baby cardigan where every detail matters.
The colour range for Mulberry Soft DK tends toward refined, tonal shades that let the natural lustre of the silk and alpaca do the talking. Expect soft neutrals alongside richer, more considered hues that suit both classic and contemporary projects equally well.
With 200m per 50g ball, you get excellent yardage for a luxury-blend yarn, making it well suited to larger projects without breaking the bank on ball count. Handle it gently — check the care label and hand wash as directed — and your finished pieces will retain their drape and sheen for years to come.
