100% Wild Vicuña Weaving Yarn (2/28)

The most luxurious weaving yarn on the market. Spun in Italy from 100% pure wild vicuña fiber, this lace-weight yarn is warm, elegant, and soft as a cloud. It comes from the same Italian mill that supplies the haute couture fashion houses, and this yarn is used by many elite designers for their finest woven goods. Our 2/28 lace-weight vicuña yarn has the warm cinnamon hue of natural vicuña and an unbelievably soft hand. It will produce scarves, shawls, and other fabrics of unparalleled luxury. Excellent as both warp and weft, although we recommend warping under gentle tension.
