Experience the exceptional softness of Puna and Eco Puna by Amano. Grown and produced in Peru, this 8ply/DK weight, 100% baby alpaca yarn is a dream to touch and is absolutely luscious in garments, shawls and accessories.
There are two ranges in Puna - Eco Puna - an amazing collection of naturals, and Puna with 15 beautiful colours.
Eco Puna in Quechua (the native language of the Incas) means natural mountains of the Andes. Perfect for the range which celebrates all the wonderful natural colours of alpaca fibre. Eco Puna is a range of 100% natural and certified melange tones where different natural colours of fibre are blended together. Use them together for a beautifully natural effect and mix them in with Puna.
Puna is a range of gorgeous colours in the same base of Eco Puna. It is also now fully traceable back to the alpaca it came from, which is a really fun feature! Using the unique QR code on each label, access the world of alpaca farming and fibre processing.
Although baby alpaca fibre tends to come from alpacas that are less than two years old as the fibres tend to get coarser as the animal ages, it really refers to the fineness of the fibre and where it comes from on the animal - usually the neck and chest.
