I have made fingerless gloves, winter hats, and scarves from this luxurious Peruvian 55% Suri Alpaca, 45% Extra Fine Merino yarn.

Two thing I love about Suri Merino: 1) it has a luxurious finish that almost looks like velvet when knit, 2) it has wonderful body and spring, but is an extremely soft yarn.

For hand knit gifts, this yarn is one of the best I have used ... and from the reaction of those who have received the gifts, it seems they do agree!

In my free pattern directory, both the New York Hat and New York Scarf patterns call for Suri Merino. The Terra gift bag would also be perfect in this lovely yarn.

Each ball is 50g, 100 yards with an estimated guage of 5 stitches to the inch on U.S. size 7 needles.

Price: $5.99 (U.S.)
