Alpine Lace is a worsted weight silk and mohair boucle, much like Alpine Baby only heavier in weight. Each 8 oz hank has over 400 yards and the content is 54% mohair/ 23% silk and 18% wool with a nylon binder. This yarn is commonly used for shrugs and shawls, sweaters and cardigans or any luxury project that needs a little bounce and shine. Use this yarn in place of the discontinued Froth yarn or in the Fiber Trends Evening Shrug pattern. It is also featured in Special Little Knits from Just One Skein by Cheryl Potter.
