Filitaly Lab · Arcadia 2/4000 · 200m/100g (219yds/3.5oz) · 100% Alpaca (WP)
Arcadia 2/4000 by Filitaly Lab is pure alpaca at its most direct — a worsted-weight single-fiber yarn that makes no compromises and needs none. 100% alpaca delivers everything this fiber is known for: extraordinary softness that rivals cashmere, natural warmth without the weight, and a distinctive, silky drape that sets alpaca apart from every other animal fiber.
Alpaca contains no lanolin, making it naturally hypoallergenic and an exceptional choice for sensitive skin. The fiber is hollow, giving it remarkable thermal properties — warm in cool weather, surprisingly breathable when the temperature rises. Arcadia 2/4000 translates all of this into a yarn that is generous, honest, and deeply comfortable to wear.
Versatile Use
At 200m/100g, Arcadia 2/4000 is a true worsted-weight yarn ready to knit and crochet as is. For machine knitting, finer strand combinations are equally possible. The pure alpaca composition produces fabric with natural warmth, fluid drape, and the distinctive soft handle that only this fiber delivers. Ideal for sweaters, cardigans, shawls, and accessories where alpaca's singular comfort is the point.

Swatching Required
A washed and thoroughly dried swatch is essential. Pure alpaca has no natural elasticity and may relax and drape further after washing, altering gauge significantly. Accurate swatching ensures proper fit and yardage estimates.
