Description

Inspired by the far northern latitudes, Tundra is a bulky yarn with a pleasing, rounded appearance, blending fine Merino wool, baby alpaca and silk for a plump yarn with lots of loft that creates a relatively lightweight fabric but with all the enveloping warmth you would expect from such an ample yarn.

"For soft, luxurious winter sweaters and accessories to treasure, look to Tundra! This pleasing blend of alpaca, wool and silk is surprisingly light and lofty for a chunky-weight yarn; its plump, rounded nature and relaxed 2ply produces a bouncy and flexible fabric. The gleaming shades include a choice of sophisticated blues, reds and neutral colours." - The Knitter, Issue 183
