Made in MD Alpaca is a sport yarn made from the suri alpacas of a MD farm called Flamepool Alpacas.

It is 100% alpaca, milled at Painted Sky alpaca Farm and Fiber Mill, also in Maryland.  I dyed it

with cochineal and osage.  There is some pink too that I couldn’t get to show up in the picture.

Each hank is about 110g, tightly plied so it makes a lovely soft dense

yarn that has excellent stitch definition but also lovely drape.  When I knit the sample moebius

shawl, it knit up sturdily and beautifully.
