Suri

The softness and sheen of suri alpaca, combined with the definition and strength of merino, result in a yarn with a silky hand, elegant drape, and a highly versatile character.

It is a lightweight and comfortable yarn, designed for garments worn close to the body and for projects in which the material provides both presence and everyday comfort.

We hand-dye our skeins using natural dyes extracted from plants grown under certified organic cultivation.

We apply low-impact dyeing techniques and processes. Each skein shows subtle variations, a result of the hand-dyeing process and the nature of the pigment itself.

We recommend purchasing sufficient yarn to complete your project and alternating skeins while knitting if a more uniform result is desired.

Fibers dyed with indigo may transfer a small amount of color onto hands or needles—especially wooden or bamboo ones—during knitting.

This is completely normal: some indigo molecules are released through friction, as also happens with denim. Any staining washes off the hands and does not affect the quality of the yarn.

When combining indigo-dyed colors with others, these particles do not usually transfer. However, as with any highly saturated shade, we recommend knitting and washing a small swatch before starting the project.

We recommend hand washing garments only when necessary, using a mild soap, and drying them flat.

Natural dyes are sensitive to pH, so it’s important to avoid harsh detergents.

Natural fibers do not require frequent washing. In many cases, airing the garment well between uses is enough to keep it in good condition.

Although we take special care to photograph colors accurately, tones may vary slightly depending on the monitor or device on which they are viewed.
