Composition: 70% alpaca, 30% polyamide
Yarn weight: about 200 meters for 50 g / 219 yards for 1.8 oz

Type of yarns in category: DK, Light, Worsted.

Cumbria is an alpaca yarn crafted from three twisted strands. Two ultrafine threads form the core, while a third, super-thin, fuzzy, and almost ethereal strand adds a voluminous, cotton-candy-like texture. This third alpaca strand determines the varying thickness of the entire yarn, depending on the concentration of its fluffy component. The resulting yarn has a firm structure but is also soft, thanks to the natural suppleness of alpaca fibers. Its slightly irregular volume, silky texture, and smooth glide make it a pleasure to work with.

TECHNIQUES

Use medium-sized knitting needles or crochet hooks (approximately 3.5 mm or 4 mm). For an airier look, opt for larger sizes. For a denser result (such as for outdoor knitwear), go down a size. Cumbria is also excellent for weaving, macramé, needle punching, and tufting.

Important notes: keep in mind that undoing your work is almost impossible if you make a mistake. The fuzzy strand tangles within the stitches, making it challenging to unravel. Therefore, proceed carefully and test your stitches and patterns by making a swatch before starting your final project.

TIPS

With knitting needles: stockinette stitch, ribbing, and bold, textured patterns work best, as the fluffy yarn can obscure intricate details. Despite its softness, Cumbria’s structure ensures even edges and neat margins.

With crochet hook: single crochet is ideal for achieving a compact, dense fabric. Higher stitches, like double crochet, can also be used, but closing loops on the hook may be slightly challenging with this type of yarn. That said, the yarn remains easy to handle and glides smoothly during work.

On the loom: great on a rigid heddle loom with a 32:10 reed (3.2 ends/cm). This yarn can be used as both warp and weft, but should be woven at low density to prevent threads from sticking. Not recommended for beginners. Soft hand, making it perfect for garments or accessories that touch the skin.

Good option, especially in warmer weather
Size: 6-10, Color: Black
High quality socks and very durable. Nice touch adding the grip on the back of the ankle so the sock stays up. Size is a true fit to the size of your foot as well.

Love these socks!
Size: 6-10, Color: White
Comfortable, no show, and most importantly The Do No Slip!!!! I keep coming back to add to my supply because they have become the only sock I wear. I’ve been using them for a couple years now and they hold to great to washing, bleaching and the dryer. Highly recommended.

The only socks I will buy
Size: 6-10, Color: Halo Gray/Assorted
These are hands down my favorite socks to wear with tennis shoes. Bought my original 6 pack in the store, liked them so much I went buy more and they were gone. These don't slip on your heel like most socks do. Come up high enough on the top of your foot to protect from tongue rubbing (I giggled when I wrote that) and they come in fun colors. Love they are ultra no show and provide padding but people can't see them with shoes on. Five stars!
