The Soulmate collection - Merino & Suri/Silk

This pairing makes such a beautiful fabric it’s as if they were made for each other! This is a fine, thin finished fabric that has incredible warmth, softness and drape, the halo from the Baby Suri Alpaca has no prickle factor and so is kind to most skin that is sensitive to fluffy yarns. This is absolutely next to skin soft and is the ideal winter layering fabric because you get truly heavyweight warmth from delicate lightweight fabric.

Designed to be incredibly flexible the Merino base and baby Suri Alpaca come as a pair (with an option to add an extra skein of Suri for a whopping 600m of Baby Suri Alpaca & Silk) in the colours you choose:

Anthracite - Semi-solid black

Eternity Rose - Semi-solid deep red

Doves are only Pigeons with good PR - Our famous semi-solid silver grey

Kingfisher - Semi-solid Teal

The Queen Sessions - I want to break free - Our popular semi-solid hot fuschia (it’s bright!)

You can order your Merino & Suri in the same colour or mix and match as you desire for your pattern. You can see other swatches and details in our blog post here.
