Handspun yarn out of All Natural Silver Gray Alpaca

Finally finished a nice big ball of 2 ply alpaca yarn I spun from one of our silver gray girl, Luca's fiber. Her fiber is so fine, still in the low 20 microns. I love using the yarn for any knitted or woven projects, like scarves, right around my neck :)

This ball is 456 yrds, 5.6 oz of heavenly soft 80/20 alpaca/merino blend in DK weight.
I offer smaller portions of it in my etsy shop. But the temptation to knit it all up is huge ...so we'll see ;)
