baby yak, camel, alpaca 4ply and fingering weight yarns

These yarns were mostly spun by Natural Fantasy of Italy, who specialise in luxury yarns, a few in a similar Spanish mill. They are made from the finest low micron fibres of Yak (16.5 - 17 micron, known as superyak or baby yak) camel (16.5 - 18 micron, known as baby camel) and supergeelong (18-18.5 microns) merino yarns.. which combine to give a soft and fascinating yarn, at fingering weight ideal for chunky pullovers and similar, the 4ply great for lighter garments by hand or machine...
