Alpaca from Sandnes yarn is a soft and comfortable four-strand yarn. Alpaca is about three times warmer than regular wool and insulates well. The fiber is hollow, which means that the air can both heat when it's cold and cool when it's hot. Alpaca does not contain lanolin and is therefore suitable for those who are allergic to this.

Sandnes Alpakka is of "superfine" quality, the term used for alpaca fiber between 25-26 microns (micrometers) and is one of the softest alpaca qualities used in hand knitting yarn.
