Lace weight
A&P Alpaca & Silk Lace
The softest baby alpaca spun with silk to give strength. A light, airy yarn with a lovely soft sheen, the halo from the alpaca won’t obscure your stitches. Hand dyed in small batches each skein is 800 metres, enough for a shawl.
Ball weight and length – 100g./800m.
Fibre – 80% Baby Alpaca, 20% silk
Washing – Hand wash only using a gentle detergent
Ainsworth & Prin yarn is hand dyed in small batches. We try to achieve consistent colours but each skein is unique so when using more than one skein of a colour in a project we really recommend alternating skeins every couple of rows.
A&P Mohair & Silk Lace
Luxuriously fluffy, hand dyed kid mohair blended with silk. Use it on it’s own or double it up with another yarn to add halo and softness without weight.
Ball weight and length – 25g./210 m.
Fibre – 72% Kid Mohair, 28% Silk
Washing – Hand wash only using a gentle detergent
