I got this lovely alpaca wool from Village Wools in Albuquerque a few months ago for a Christmas present which I am just now starting. It is Henry's Attic Prime Alpaca from alpaca's raised in Peru at 13,000 - 16,000 feet. I'm starting to really love alpaca. It's like knitting with a pillow. It's super soft. It's just perfect for what I'm making, which will remain a surprise until Christmas. ;) It was a little pricey but I got 665 yards in one skein. It is also a nice natural dark black. This will be the first time I've knitted with fine black yarn which I've heard will be a challenge, but I'm giving myself five months to finish it! Wish me luck...
