This yarn is soft in the kind of way that makes you immediately question every other yarn you’ve ever touched. Like, excuse me, where have you been all my life? Made from 100% baby alpaca, Herriot is cozy, elegant, and just fuzzy enough to make your project look expensive even if you’re knitting it while wearing pajama pants and ignoring your laundry.
Named after the beloved James Herriot, this yarn has a gentle halo, beautiful drape, and the kind of softness that makes sweaters, scarves, hats, and wraps feel downright luxurious. It lands somewhere between DK and light worsted, so definitely swatch before you go charging in with blind confidence and a dream.
The colors are rich, earthy, and softly heathered, which means they look beautiful on their own and play very nicely with stripes, colorwork, and any project where you want people to say, “Wait… you MADE that?”
