A beautiful combination of Halo and Mariquita that are exquisitely hand dyed to complement each other perfectly. Presented in a beautiful braid that contains 50g of Halo, (514 yards) and 100g of Mariquita (400 yds). With this much yardage, almost any shawl pattern could be tackled.
Halo is a lace weight brushed Suri Alpaca. While it looks like mohair, it has an amazing softness with none of the itchy-ness that you might find in mohair. Suri alpaca is very rare and very lustrous and is perfect for lacy projects.
Mariquita is a luxurious blend of 50% baby alpaca and 50% tencel. It has a subtle shine and a beautiful drape. Perfect for shawls, scarves, and lightweight garments and accessories.
