Highland Alpaca Worsted Tweed balances two fibres that complement each other well: superfine alpaca for softness and drape, highland wool for structure and the rustic character that gives tweeds their appeal. The result sits in a pleasing middle ground: warm and earthy without being scratchy, soft without losing the substance you want in a worsted weight. The tweed flecks add depth to the earthy palette, making even simple stitch patterns visually interesting. Not superwash treated; hand wash and dry flat. A good choice for garments and accessories where you want natural character without sacrificing wearability.
