Dos Tierras means Two Lands, reflecting the sources of the two amazing fibres found in this ultra-soft yarn. By spinning together 50% of fine Uruguayan Merino wool with 50% baby alpaca from Peru Malabrigo have created a DK weight yarn that is as versatile as it is beautiful.
This yarn is perfect for accessories and hand-wash-friendly garments, next-to-skin wear, lace, cables, colour work, and textured stitches.
Be sure to get enough yarn to complete your project since each bag is a different dye lot, and skeins may vary from bag to bag
