  • Small batch, hand-dyed alpaca wool blend

    We're so excited to welcome alpaca back to our stash with this super soft, textural and squishy collection from our friends at Shangdrok. This worsted weight yarn brings cloud-like fluffiness to any project. 

    This collection is extra special in that each skein is hand-dyed by Shangdrok's founder, April Tang, and her small team. April is a social entrepreneur who not only founded an incredibly impactful initiative to support and preserve the artforms of nomad women on the Tibetan Plateau but has also created a hand-dyeing studio (and indie dye movement!) in Taiwan. Your love for this yarn makes all of the above possible (so huge thanks to you).

    Visit our Pattern Library for free project ideas and exact yardage guidelines, we'll be adding more patterns for this collections soon (like this adorable baby bear beanie from Fox & Pine Stitches).
