A Unique balanced Lock/tail spun 2ply, Naturally Dyed orange (Annatto) Baby Alpaca yarn, spun on my beloved Ashford Spinning Wheel.
This skein is 40g in weight. Annatto Orange is a beautiful orange dye derived from the seeds of a Central American shrub, Bixa Orellana. It is the colouring that is used to make orange cheese, orange!
It's also plied on my Ashford wheel.
The baby alpaca are soft, fluffy and lustrous. It's soft, smooth and luxurious! Lock spun shows of the amazing defined curls of the natural fleece. It has a fluffy texture when fabricated. A truly unique yarn. Perfect for any textile art. From crochet, to knit, to weave.
