Balayage

Balayage

The special feature of this yarn is its mottled grey shade, which has been achieved by combining 80% white and grey baby alpaca with 20% white organic merino wool. This combination creates a color gradient with a very natural hand dyed feel. 

Balayage is perfect for shawls and scarves. It also lends itself beautifully for sweaters and cardigans. Its fine stitch definition is ideal for cables, lace and colorwork such as Fair Isle.

The mixture of delicate baby alpaca and fine merino wool makes Balayage a yarn that is soft and gentle on the skin. It can be worn by those with the most sensitive skin and is also suitable for babies and children.

Wash your knitwear made of Balayage by hand in lukewarm water with Eucalan mild wool detergent. Do not machine wash! Dry flat to avoid stretching on a terry cloth towel. Do not dry directly on a heat source or in the blazing sun.
