Incredibly light and soft, it is a pure delight in your hands and on your knitting needles.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eAbout This Yarn\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePouf is made in Peru, using an innovative Italian-made machine that whips a mix of 50% alpaca and 50% fine highland wool into a floaty strand with a hollow core... It's literally spun around air! This unique structure has all the softness of a single ply yarn, yet it resists pilling, and that cushion of air at the center makes it wonderfully insulating, too.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePick from Pouf's palette of 30+ colors, a mix of sheep-y neutrals like Fresh Nutmeg and Hot Coffee and natural pops like Crocus Bud and Aqua Sea.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEach big, bouncy 100-gram ball gives you tons of yardage for a bulky- to super bulky-weight yarn, thanks to that feather-light spin... Fully 108 yards of joy!\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCast on with Pouf for plush accessories, garments, and blankets that won't weigh you down, with smaller needles for a dense, fleecy texture or larger needles for lofty fabric and a soft drape.

To reflect this, we are increasing the recommended gauge and yarn weight to include chunky\/bulky as well as super bulky, but the label on the yarn you receive may not reflect this change. Rest assured, it is the same yarn, and will knit up beautifully at that denser gauge if you desire!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eProduct Details\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eContent: \u003c\/strong\u003e50% alpaca, 50% highland wool\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight: \u003c\/strong\u003e100 grams (3.5 ounces)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength: \u003c\/strong\u003e108 yards (98 meters)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGauge: \u003c\/strong\u003e2.5-3 stitches per inch, bulky- to super bulky-weight yarn\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSuggested Knitting Needle: \u003c\/strong\u003eUS 10.5-13 (6.5-9 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSuggested Crochet Hook: \u003c\/strong\u003eK-M\/N (6.5-9 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRecommended Care: \u003c\/strong\u003eHand wash cold, lay flat to dry\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMilled In: \u003c\/strong\u003ePeru\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eSustainability + Environmental Impact\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePouf is Peru Fair Trade Certified, which means the mill that makes it is committed to fair and safe working conditions, as well as a respect for the environment, with low-impact production techniques, a responsible consumption of resources, and the reuse, recycling, and reduction of raw materials.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIt is also OEKO-TEX Certified and adheres to European REACH regulations that protect human health and the environment from harmful chemicals.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eRecommended Substitutions For Pouf\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLooking for more \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/yarn\"\u003eyarn\u003c\/a\u003e like this?
