Peruvian Tweed
Fiber Content:
100% Superfine Alpaca, spun in Peru.
Description:
All colors are naturally occurring—no dyes have been used. Known as “the heavenly fiber” because it’s grown between the altitudes of 13,000 and 16,000 feet.
Note: This yarn is considered a ‘light worsted’ weight yarn - slightly heavier than DK.
Information from The Village Spinning & Weaving Shop website:

All colors are naturally occurring - no dyes are added. “Peruvian Tweed” is a three-ply yarn… two softer twist plies plus one ply of a tighter twist that secures everything and helps give it an irregular look.
