Drops BRUSHED ALPACA SILK is a luxurious combination of alpaca wool and pure silk. This yarn has the soft fluffiness (the so-called „brushed“ texture) and the subtle shimmer of silk. Exceptionally lightweight yet incredibly warm, they are ideal on their own or in combination with other yarns. They are the perfect choice for stylish, „fluffy“ sweaters and elegant accessories that not only keep you warm, but also look extremely luxurious.

Drops BRUSHED ALPACA SILK (77% alpaca wool, 23% silk) - Yarns A harmony of lightness and luxury
If you're looking for a yarn to give your knitting a dreamy, light and ultra-stylish look, Drops BRUSHED ALPACA SILK is it. The unique composition of 77% alpaca wool and 23% silk creates a fabric that is as light as a feather, but with the warmth of a much thicker yarn.
Why will you love this yarn?
- Luxurious composition: the Alpaca down makes it cosy and soft, while the natural silk core guarantees durability and a subtle, elegant glow.
- Versatility: this yarn is a real chameleon. You can knit with one yarn (for a sheer, spiderweb lightweight knit), with two yarns (for a denser, fluffier effect), or add to another yarn (such as merino wool) to give the knit a mohair-like fluff.
- Fast results: although the yarn is fine, its fluffiness means that it is usually knitted with larger sized skeins (from 5 mm), so that the work is fast and the yarn stays fluffy and doesn't sink to the bottom.
- Safety and ethics: like all Drops yarns, these are made in Peru to high quality standards and the raw materials are carefully selected.
Creative ideas
This yarn is at its best when knitting wide, loose-fitting sweaters, lightweight scarves, elegant vests or stylish hats. It's a great alternative to Kid-Silk if you want a bit more volume and even softer fluff.
