Callao Brushed 15000 1500m/100g (1640yds/3.5oz) – Alpaca, Polyamide & Merino Wool Blend

From the Italian mill Filitaly-Lab, Callao Brushed is a gossamer-light yarn spun with a high content of alpaca. Fluffy, soft, and almost weightless, it creates a gentle halo with an elegant matte texture. Ideal for featherlight fabrics, sheer layers, and lace effects, this yarn combines the warmth of alpaca with the durability of polyamide and the structure of fine merino. Despite its high meterage, it holds well in multiple strands, offering endless creative freedom for both knitting and weaving.
