RiGo · Baggio 2700 · 270m/100g (295yds/3.5oz) · 78% Alpaca (WP) 8% Merino (WV) 14% Polyamide (PA)

Baggio 2700 by RiGo is a luxurious brushed blend combining 78% alpaca, 8% merino wool, and 14% polyamide in a spectacularly fluffy construction. This ultra-soft composition delivers alpaca's legendary warmth and cloud-like softness enhanced by merino's gentle elasticity, with polyamide adding structure and durability. The heavily brushed finish creates an exceptional halo and plush, voluminous hand feel. The airy structure requires larger needles and looser gauge to allow the fiber to bloom and breathe, creating lightweight fabrics with maximum fluffiness and warmth without weight.

Versatile Use

Baggio 2700 works beautifully as a single strand in the DK weight category. The brushed alpaca-merino blend creates fabrics with extraordinary softness, natural warmth, impressive loft, and dramatic halo. The open, fluffy construction benefits from larger needles to allow proper drape and air circulation. Ideal for cozy sweaters, wraps, accessories, and projects where exceptional fluffiness and warmth take center stage. Works solo for maximum cloudlike effect or as a stunning companion held together with smooth yarns to add spectacular texture and luxurious dimension.
