Hedgehog Fibres Alpaca DK Beetle

Hand-dyed in County Cork, Ireland, each unique Hedgehog Fibre colorway is inspired by company founder, Beata Jezek’s, personal style.  The signature colorways range from dark & moody to fluorescent & vibrant.  A hint of alpaca gives this yarn a gorgeous softness while Merino wool ensures that knits will hold their shape.  One of the most perfect DK weight yarns!  So versatile for just about any pattern that calls for DK weight yarn.  We cannot wait to knit a hat and mitten set.

Artisan hand-dyed yarns have natural color variations from skein to skein. Our team will do their best to choose the best matching skeins for your order. Here are some tips to get the best results when knitting with hand-dyed yarns:

• Purchase enough yarn for your entire project
• Alternate skeins by knitting two rows from one skein, then two rows from another skein. This will help to blend color differences.
