In brief Drops Nepal

Drops Nepal is a gorgeous, thick luxury yarn spun from 35% superfine alpaca and 65% wool. This blend emphasises the alpaca's silky smooth surface, while the wool contributes to better shape retention. The fibres are untreated, which means that they are only washed and not subjected to chemical treatments before dyeing, preserving the natural properties of the yarn.

The quality is spun from 3 threads, resulting in a rustic and beautiful stitch pattern.
Drops Nepal is easy to knit with and is particularly suitable for felting, giving the garment an even and soft surface after felting.

Nepal is available in mixed colours, which means that the wool is carded together before spinning, creating a beautiful mottled effect in the finished yarn.

Read more about washing yarn

 

Firstly, you should always consider whether the clothes only need to be aired rather than washed. If you decide to wash, here are some guidelines:

  • Hand wash 30ºC - separately - with a detergent without enzymes or optical brighteners.
  • Don't soak the garment, move it gently back and forth without lifting, scrubbing or twisting.
  • Rinse the clothes until the rinse water is completely clear, making sure to keep the water at the same temperature.
  • Spin the garment lightly (approx. 800 revolutions), choose a programme that does NOT take in water when you start the spin cycle. Or gently squeeze the water out of the clothes with a dry towel. Do not wring or roll the clothes.
  • Dry clothes flat in the correct shape and size - do not hang - preferably on a warm bathroom floor or on a drying rack in a room with good circulation, never in direct sunlight.
  • Do not tumble dry.
  • Never iron directly on the garment. Use a tea towel between the iron and the garment.

Please note: If you want to wash a project that is a combination of this and another yarn, follow the washing instructions for the yarn with the finest/most delicate fibres.
