Moordale

Did you know that alpacas are not only found in the Peruvian highlands, but also in the British Isles? The alpacas that live there give their wool to Rowan Moordale, creating an incomparable blend of British wool and British alpaca wool. Alpaca insulates very well due to its special structure. So it warms when it's cold and cools when it's warm. Because of its grip and stability, it has a very clear stitch pattern and is excellent for multicolor knitting. Moordale is not as soft as merino. But did you know that the feeling of scratching depends to a large extent on the temperature outside? The colder it is outside, the better a wool warms us, whose fiber is not as smooth as Merino. Sure, more air can be trapped between the fibers for warmth.
