Why choose Gazzal Alpaca Air?
  • Blown Baby Alpaca: Alpaca Air is a blown yarn: 58% baby alpaca and 14% superwash merino fill a fine polyamide net instead of being tightly spun, so a 50 g ball stretches to 150 m at worsted weight.
  • Split-Free, Slow to Frog: Because the fibers sit inside a mesh rather than a twist, the strand doesn't split on 5–6 mm needles or a 5 mm hook. Ripping back is slow as the fluff catches, so swatch first.
  • Light, Warm Sweaters: At 16 stitches per 10 cm it makes oversized sweaters, cardigans and scarves that feel warm but weigh little, with a soft halo that blooms with wear. Hand wash at 30 °C and dry flat.
Description

Gazzal Alpaca Air – Cloud-Like Softness with Baby Alpaca

Gazzal Alpaca Air uses modern "blown yarn" technology to redefine winter knits. Instead of traditional spinning, fibers of Baby Alpaca and Merino Wool are blown into a lightweight polyamide tube. This creates a yarn that has the volume and look of a thick winter yarn but is virtually weightless. It is the perfect choice for trendy oversized sweaters that keep you warm without weighing you down.

💡 Creative Tip: Because of its airy structure, this yarn fills the space between stitches beautifully. It’s excellent for simple stockinette stitch, as the texture of the yarn itself provides a rich, velvety finish.

Why choose this "Air" technology yarn?

  • Warmth without Weight: You get the insulation of a heavy winter coat with the lightness of a feather—garments won't sag or stretch out of shape.
  • Baby Alpaca Luxury: Sourced from the finest, softest alpaca fleece, this yarn is incredibly gentle on the skin and suitable for those sensitive to sheep's wool.
  • Quick Progress: Despite being light, it knits up on larger needles, making your projects grow surprisingly fast.

TIPS & TRICKS

Pro Tip: Blown yarn has little bounce, so ribbing relaxes after washing. Work cuffs and hems on a needle 1 mm smaller than the body, and measure gauge on a washed swatch. If you meet a factory join in the ball, cut it out and start a fresh end rather than knitting through it.

FAQ

Here are some answers that might help.

About Product

How many balls of Gazzal Alpaca Air for a sweater?

Most adult sweaters need about 6–8 balls. An oversized worsted-weight pullover in size M typically uses 900–1,200 m, and each 50 g ball holds 150 m, so 900–1,200 m ÷ 150 m gives 6–8 balls. That is only about 300–400 g of yarn for the whole sweater, which is why it feels so light to wear.

Does Gazzal Alpaca Air shed or pill?

Expect a little shedding at first, as with most airy alpaca yarns, and some light pilling where sleeves rub against the body. A good shake and a gentle first hand wash remove most loose fibres. Any pills can be lifted with a sweater comb or fabric shaver used with light pressure.

Is Gazzal Alpaca Air suitable for people allergic to wool?

Not for a true wool allergy: alongside 58% baby alpaca it contains 14% superwash merino. Many people who simply find sheep's wool scratchy wear it happily, since baby alpaca is very soft and the merino share is small. For a fully wool-free halo yarn, look at Gazzal Navarra, made of acrylic and polyester.

Gazzal Alpaca Air or DROPS Melody for a light oversized sweater?

Both make light, warm sweaters with plenty of metres per ball; the difference is gauge and look. Alpaca Air is a blown worsted yarn with 150 m per 50 g for 5–6 mm needles and a smooth, velvety surface. DROPS Melody is a brushed chunky yarn, 140 m per 50 g on 8 mm needles, fluffier and quicker to knit.
