DROPS Alpaca Bouclé is a wonderfully soft effect yarn that was spun from superfine alpaca. The fibers are untreated, which means that they have only been washed and not chemically pre-treated before they are dyed. This way you get the best properties of the fiber and at the same time it gives a better shape and texture.
“Bouclé” is the French word for sling, and this refers to all the little loops of pure alpaca that give the yarn its distinctive look. The yarn is spun from 2 strands.
The binding thread is made from a mixture of wool and polyamide and gives the yarn stability. From DROPS Alpaca Bouclé knitted pieces are light and airy.
DROPS Alpaca Bouclé also includes some mix colors. You get this effect by mixing different colors while carding before spinning.
