Dos Tierras means Two Lands, reflecting the sources of the two amazing fibers found in this ultra-soft yarn. By spinning together 50% of our fine Uruguayan Merino wool yarn with 50% baby alpaca yarn from Peru Malabrigo has created a light worsted DK weight yarn that is as versatile as it is beautiful. When combined the good stitch definition and drape of this four-ply yarn with Malabrigo's amazing kettle-dyed semi-solid and variegated colors you have the perfect palette to help show off your stitch work. Baby Alpaca and Merino wool yarn is the perfect DK weight yarn blend!
