The Alpaca Yarn Co. Glimmer, made in Peru

Extremely beautiful and ultra soft, Glimmer is a pure baby alpaca yarn with lamé effect created by a thin, soft metallic thread twisted with the core fiber. This beautiful and remarkably soft yarn is suitable for knitting in lace stitch- or open-work patterns: shawls, stoles, wraps, as well as plain sweaters and accessories.

For information: Lurex® is the trade name for a metallic yarn produced by coating thin metal foil with clear plastic in various colours. Patented in the U.S. in 1945.
