Suri Alpaca DK

Mitchell Wool Co., based on a family farm in Michigan, raises sheep-to-skein, completely American wool. The sheep live on the Mitchell farm, a neighbor grows the hay, and the mill that spins the yarn is just 40 miles down the road. They then hand-dye the yarn with natural dyes, mostly from plants grown on the farm. Suri Alpaca DK is a 2-ply, woolen-spun yarn made with incredibly soft Suri Alpaca and Rambouillet wool.

It's available in the following colors: Butternut Squash (dyed with marigold) Green Bean Casserole (dyed with mulberry and chlorophyll) Heirloom Tomato (dyed with madder) Pecan Pie (undyed) Please understand that this yarn is hand-dyed with natural dyes.
