Baby Lama

Baby Lama by Filati Venezia, 50% Merino 50% Lama, 367 meter/100 gram. This yarn combines fine merino with exceptionally soft, extra-fine baby llama selected for this season’s particularly fluffy and lightweight quality. The result is a construction that brings together merino’s elasticity, comfort, and stitch recovery with a noticeably airy, soft, and gently brushed-like baby llama character that adds volume without heaviness. Unlike more structured llama qualities, this exceptional batch of baby llama behaves closer to alpaca in softness and halo, creating a fabric with a light, airy bloom while still maintaining better stability and definition than typical high-halo alpaca yarns. The merino smooths the handle and supports even stitch formation, while the baby llama adds warmth, softness, and a diffused surface texture that enhances the overall fabric depth. At 367 meters per 100 grams, it remains a versatile fine-to-medium yarn suitable for lightweight garments and layering pieces where softness and comfort are key. Needle suggestion: 4–5 mm depending on desired density, drape, and halo development, with swatching recommended to balance structure and fluffiness in the final fabric.
