One of my favourite materials to work in – Alpaca. Here a collage of some of my Alpaca sweaters and cardigans, all in Drops Alpaca.

Drops Alpaca comes in lots of beautiful shades and if they’re not enough, it can easily be combined with Mini Alpakka from Sandnesgarn.no, which , however, is more expensive.

I tend to buy yarn in bulk when they’re on sale which happens about twice a year when we’re talking about Drops Alpaca: November-December -25% and May -35%. So even though my Alpaca stash looks like this at the moment…

… I’m awaiting a new order of lots and lots of yarn as it is that favourite time of year for yarn shopping – May.

Here you can see the Alpaca garments individually:

1. “Nancy” (Sandnes Garn)

2.

3. “Rygja” (Sandnes Garn)

4. Seven sorts / Sju slag by Vanja Blix Langsrud

5. Free pattern in Norwegian from Gjestal.no

6.

7. Elidakofta

8. – 9.

Number 8 is a modification of Ventetid by Kristin Wiola Ødegård

Now I’ve got to run down to the yarn store – just got the message that my yarn has arrived \o/.
