This luscious wrap came to the shop care of Australian Yarn Co. as part of their traveling trunk show for the new Heirloom Alpaca 4 Ply range.

This stunningly soft yarn is 100% alpaca and made right here is Australia. We love the nature inspired colour palette and delicate heather of the dyed-in-the-wool alpaca fibre.

Heirloom’s new booklet, Essential Alpaca, features Alpaca 4 Ply in two versatile patterns - the Emerge Wrap (featured here) and the Chrysalis Jumper.

I’ve detailed some notes on the wrap below, enjoy the project photos - there’s a few!

Enjoy!
