Halo Watercolors
Halo is a lace weight brushed Suri Alpaca. Halo Watercolors are hand-dyed in a manner that create soft subtle pops of color, giving an overall look of a watercolor painting. This is the perfect yarn for holding together with another yarn to bulk up the gauge and give the base yarn a whole new look. Pair watercolors with Classic Alpaca for extremely subtle shading. It can take a DK weight yarn up to a bulky size needle. While it looks like mohair, Halo has an amazing softness with none of the itchy feel that you might find in mohair. Suri alpaca is very rare and very lustrous and is perfect for lacy projects.
