Rowan has come out with a new yarn this season and it’s absolutely scrumptious, Alpaca Cotton.  It’s a blend of 72% Alpaca and 28% Cotton, this yarn is soft and light, yet warm.  It knits at 16 stitches over 4 inches and each ball contains 148 yards.  You may have admired the beautiful store sample shawl in the shop.

There is a great pattern book, Winter Solstice, to accompany this yarn, but also wanted to share this fantastic free pattern made with Alpaca Cotton.
