    The softness is not an exaggeration!

    They reminded me to write a review but I thought about not doing it so there would be more yarn for me! I picked up Chikan in red and ivory on this order and for now to use on crochet projects which I started 2 weeks ago. I thought the Andean Spirit would be my go-to yarn but it will be Chikan. It is so soft it is almost like holding nothing. I made up a sweater for a friend and she loved it. The red is so glorious! I have to say though the ivory is my favorite. The soft color with the soft texture is amazing. Any of your pet cats will argue with you about who owns the yarn. All I can say is buy if you like soft, incredibly soft and beautifully dyed yarn. You will quickly find yourself addicted like me and and trying to find excuses to keep the supply to yourself so they don't run out. Seriously though, its an incredibly soft and wonderful yarn. The best alpaca yarn I have ever used.
