Illimani Amelie is a luxurious worsted weight blend of mulberry silk, baby alpaca, and merino wool. Illimani describes it as “the most luxurious, softest, and lightest yarn in the world!” The strand is made up of two components: a delicate silk chainette adds strength and luster, and blown alpaca and merino fibers add warmth and a gentle halo.
Try making a super lightweight Great Lakes Pullover by Ozetta using Amelie, or a cozy cabled scarf like the Urbaine des Champs by Lucinda Iglesias. For more from Ilimani Yarn like shop favorite Santi, view our full Illimani Yarn collection.
