DROPS Melody Alpaca Yarn

When novice knitters and crocheters began asking us to provide patterns that had been tried and tested with yarn that would meet pattern specifications exactly, we looked to DROPS, a Norwegian brand. Their website DROPS Design provides a wide variety of patterns designed especially for their yarns. At a lower price point than our homegrown yarns, DROPS provides a great opportunity to produce beautiful alpaca creations even if you're a brand-new maker. 

DROPS Melody is a soft and luxurious chunky/bulky-weight yarn made from superfine alpaca and merino wool.Being so light and soft, DROPS Melody is a great choice for oversized garments as well as accessories. It knits up quickly with big needles without the piece becoming heavy and it can be used as an effect yarn together with other qualities, to give garments extra volume and softness.

Do not put alpaca in hot water, agitate it, or dry in a dryer or on a heat source.

Soak in room temperature water with gentle detergent or shampoo for 30 minutes, rinse, gently squeeze away excess water, and lay flat to dry.

Wipe soiled area with a damp cloth free from soap, and allow it to air dry. Gently brush fur when dry and shake to fluff.
