Alpaca Bouclé

This baby alpaca bouclé yarn from Kremke Soul Wool is right on trend. Baby Alpaca has particularly fine fibers and is therefore comfortable even on sensitive skin. The fiber, which is hollow on the inside, insulates very well - it keeps you warm when it's cold and repels heat when it's hot. Therefore, clothing made of alpaca can be worn all year round. Thanks to the fluffy bouclé structure of alpaca yarn, you don't need to worry about knitting pattern either - get out your needles and knit straight or garter stitch is the motto here. Large needle size and high yardage result in feather-light sweaters, jackets, coats, shawls, blankets... Tip: Beginners who are afraid of bouclé yarns are advised to work the yarn together with a smooth thread, e.g. Alpaca superfine, then you won't prick the bouclé loops so easily.

Responsibility

All yarns of the Kremke Soul Wool brand are mulesing-free. Britta Kremke, the founder of this diverse brand, is also always on the lookout for innovative production processes and yarns that are produced in an environmentally friendly and sustainable manner. As a result, five recycled yarns and two yarns with a high Tencel® content have already been created. Tencel® is described by the environmental protection organization PETA as one of the least environmentally damaging fibers because it is produced in a closed cycle. The issue of sustainability will play an even greater role in the brand in the future: Currently, Kremke Soul Wool is in the certification process for Oeko-Tex 100, Traceable Lots and Responsible Alpaca Standard (RAS).
