This yarn is so much fun!
It emulates a funky hand-spun with the big bobbles popping through the yarn. This takes the dye really well, and colours will appear as slightly more muted due to the alpaca content. It is really quick to knit and makes a really fabulous textured fabric. The bobbles tend to appear on the reverse of stocking stitch, but working on garter will mix that up. Although this would be ok for a warp, the texture might prove tricky, it’s probably better as a weft, and would make a textured woven fabric.
