A new and exciting "blow yarn" made from soft baby alpaca and cozy and warm merino wool. Its construction is unique, based on the newest yarn technologies, where instead of spinning, the fibres of baby alpaca and merino wool are air blown into a tube, which makes the garments made in this yarn about 30-35% lighter than those made with conventional spun yarns of the same thickness.
DROPS Air is - as its name says - a very airy yarn that feels beautiful against the skin, which makes it perfect for accessories, shawls, sweaters and jackets in both textured and cable patterns. Garments made in DROPS Air are totally itch-free, which means everyone can wear them!

superbe! douce et chaude!! j'ai utilisé drops silk avec et c'est un match made in heaven! 🩷
Laine douce et légère. Un bonheur à tricoter.
Idéal pour tricoter de petits toutous pour lesquels l’on veut qu’ils soient un peu fluffy.
J’ai fait le gros col patron de Cady Jacks Knit
Extremely soft and light weight yarn. Excellent to knit with. I made some socks for my toddlers boots and slippers as to not be too heavy and they came out great. Would be excellent in a fall or spring cardigan or hat.
