Alpachino Merino, Wool and the Gang

Alpachino Merino by Wool and the Gang – Chunky Merino & Baby Alpaca Yarn

Alpachino Merino is the kind of yarn that makes you want to cast on immediately. Wool and the Gang's signature chunky blend of 60% merino wool and 40% baby alpaca is bunny-soft against the skin, with a gentle two-ply twist that keeps it sturdy and easy to work with. The pretty marled colorways are vivid and striking — the kind that make a simple stockinette sweater look like you put in way more effort than you did.

It knits up quickly at bulky weight, making it ideal for weekend projects and satisfying gift knitting.
