DROPS Lima

DROPS Lima is a 4-ply sport yarn in a luxurious blend of 65% wool and 35% superfine alpaca. The yarn is untreated, which means the fibres are only washed and not chemically treated before dyeing – this highlights the natural properties and provides excellent structure and shape stability. DROPS Lima is a development of the bestselling yarn DROPS Nepal and delivers a durable, hard-wearing and comfortable result, making it an ideal choice for both everyday and outdoor garments.

Usage
With its blend of wool and alpaca, DROPS Lima is perfect for warm, classic sweaters and other outdoor wear. When knitted slightly tightly, the projects gain extra shape stability and a smooth finish.

Product benefits

  • Natural quality: Untreated fibres provide better texture and highlight the yarn’s natural properties.
  • Durable and warm: The combination of wool and alpaca offers strength, longevity and comfort.
  • Versatile: Suitable for classic Nordic sweaters, cardigans and other outdoor garments.


Tips for use

Try DROPS Lima for classic Norwegian sweaters, but also for hats, mittens and warm cardigans. The multicoloured versions provide a beautiful mixed effect, adding exciting colour play to your projects.

Why choose this yarn?
DROPS Lima is the obvious choice if you are looking for a sport yarn with a luxurious feel. It combines the softness of alpaca with the durability of wool, giving you warm and hard-wearing results that keep their shape and expression – perfect for both everyday life and outdoor adventures.
