DROPS Air in Wheat

DROPS Air is a unique blown yarn that combines soft baby alpaca and warm merino wool fibers blown into a lightweight polyamide mesh tube. This construction creates an exceptionally airy yarn that feels light in the hand while providing impressive warmth and softness. The resulting fabric has beautiful loft, gentle halo, and excellent comfort without the weight typically associated with thicker yarns. Its softness and lightness make it especially popular for garments and accessories worn close to the skin.
