Why choose YarnArt Flowers Alpaca?
  • Alpaca-Blend Gradient Cake: Flowers Alpaca blends 80% acrylic with 20% alpaca in a 250 g cake of 940 m, labeled fine (sport weight) for 3.5 mm needles or a 3.5 mm hook, with colors shifting gradually.
  • Soft Halo After Washing: It works up easily and lies even in stockinette without biasing, and reviewers say the soft alpaca halo opens up after the first wash. Expect some loose fibers while working and the odd small knot at color changes.
  • Warm Shawls and Sweaters: Use it for winter shawls, scarves, mittens and sweaters that feel soft rather than prickly. YarnArt estimates about 500 g, two cakes, for a sweater; hand wash at 30°C and dry flat.
Description

YarnArt Flowers Alpaca – Fluffy Gradients for Cold Days

YarnArt Flowers Alpaca brings the stunning color transitions of the famous "Flowers" series to your winter crafting. This cake yarn is enhanced with high-quality alpaca fiber, giving it a soft, fuzzy halo and exceptional warmth. It creates a sophisticated fabric that feels cozy against the skin, making it the premier choice for knitting or crocheting large winter shawls, ponchos, and sweaters that require both style and insulation.

💡 Comparison Tip: This yarn has a fluffy alpaca texture. If you prefer a smoother, wool-blend gradient without the fuzz, you might like YarnArt Flowers Merino.

Why choose this alpaca blend cake?

  • Warmth with Style: The addition of alpaca fibers provides superior thermal regulation, ensuring your openwork shawls keep you warm even on chilly days.
  • Seamless Ombre: Just like the classic collection, the colors flow effortlessly from one shade to another, creating a beautiful gradient effect without any knotting or weaving in ends.
  • One Cake Wonder: With a massive 940 meters (1028 yds) in a single cake, you have enough yardage to complete a large project like a triangular shawl or a medium-sized cardigan.

TIPS & TRICKS

Care Tip: Wash finished pieces by hand at 30°C, roll them in a towel to remove water and dry flat; that first soak relaxes the stitches and lets the alpaca bloom. Never tumble dry. If loose fibers appear in early wear, a gentle shake or lint roller lifts them away.

About Product

Is one cake of Flowers Alpaca enough for a shawl?

Yes, for most triangular and crescent shawls. A 940 m cake covers a large shawl in this sport weight, which typically needs 600–900 m. For a wide rectangular wrap or a ruana, plan on two cakes and join them where the colours meet so the gradient runs on smoothly.

YarnArt Flowers Alpaca vs YarnArt Flowers – which should I choose?

Choose by season. Flowers Alpaca blends 80% acrylic with 20% alpaca for a warm, fuzzy fabric suited to winter shawls and sweaters. YarnArt Flowers is 55% cotton, 45% acrylic with a smooth, cool finish for summer tops. Flowers Alpaca is also slightly thicker: sport weight on 3.5 mm, against fingering weight on 2.5 mm.

Can I crochet with Flowers Alpaca?

Yes. The label recommends a 3.5 mm hook. The alpaca halo softens the outline of crochet stitches, so open, simple patterns such as V-stitch, granny stripes or mesh show the gradient better than dense textured stitches. Crochet uses more yarn than knitting, so check your pattern's metres against the 940 m cake.

What needle size for a YarnArt Flowers Alpaca shawl?

The label suggests 3.5 mm, which gives a fairly firm fabric for sweaters and mittens. For shawls, many knitters go up to 4–4.5 mm so the fabric drapes and lace holes open up after blocking. Knit a swatch on both sizes and compare how they hang before you cast on.
