Rico Fashion Cotton Alpaca Fun Neps DK

Rico Design Fashion Cotton Alpaca Fun Neps

Oh this is a fun one!

Fashion Cotton Alpaca Fun Neps is a beautifully soft, lightweight yarn with a lovely bit of texture and a playful sprinkle of colour running through it. A blend of organic cotton, alpaca and merino gives it a soft, cosy feel, while the colourful little polyamide neps add gorgeous pops of interest throughout your knitting.

The cotton core has a subtle colour gradient running through it, with soft alpaca fibres and fluffy coloured neps twisted into the yarn to create a wonderfully textured fabric. The finished result is soft and squishy with plenty of personality without feeling heavy.

Perfect for sweaters, cardigans, accessories and those lovely simple patterns where you can let the yarn do all the work.

Fiona says: I absolutely love a yarn that gives you lots of interest without making the knitting complicated, and this does exactly that. The little colourful neps make even straightforward stocking stitch look really special, and the alpaca gives it that lovely soft halo too.
