Darling Sweater

This sweater is handcrafted using Lima yarn which is a 4-strand sport yarn, serving as the successor to the popular Nepal yarn. Crafted from a blend of 65% Peruvian Highland wool and 35% superfine alpaca, the fibers remain untreated, undergoing only washing without exposure to any chemical treatments prior to dyeing. This approach accentuates the innate qualities of the fibers, enhancing both shape and texture. Ideal for outdoor apparel such as sweaters and sportswear, typically requiring a tight knit for optimal shape retention, Drops Lima combines the robustness expected of quality wool yarn with the delightful softness and comfort attributed to alpaca. Known for its durability but also for its softness and comfort, this yarn embodies the luxurious touch that sets it apart in the realm of sport yarns.

CARE GUIDE

Consider just airing the garment, instead of washing it. If you still desire to wash it, here are some guidelines: Hand wash with lukewarm water - 30ºC max - with special wool detergent (without enzymes and optical brighteners). Let it soak in the water for 10-15 minutes, and then rinse it with clean water (DO NOT rub it or wring it, INSTEAD gently squeeze it to get as much water out as possible). To dry your piece, do not hang it as the weight of the water could stretch the wool, and instead, lay it flat on a towel. Do not use a dryer machine as the garment will shrink.
