DROPS Lace is a lace yarn at its very best: delicately fine and incredibly soft. Projects made in this yarn will have a heavenly airy look and feel. Create lightweight shawls, wraps, and scarves with complicated, ornate lace motifs. DROPS Lace is premium blend of 70% BabyAlpaca and 30% Mulberry Silk, spun into a 2-ply yarn with 875 yards per 100g skein. One skein is enough for a full sized lace project. While the suggested gauge is small, most lace patterns recommend a much larger needle or hook size so that the lace really stands out. Gauge in lace depends on how open or lacy a fabric you want and needles can range from #0 to #8.
The fineness of lace yarn makes it a good yarn choice for crafting during warmer weather when working with heavier yarns becomes too warm.
