Merino and alpaca balance each other wonderfully, creating a yarn that is strong and soft, with both elasticity and drape. Suri alpacas have long, sleek locks and are much less common than their woollier cousin, huacaya alpacas, which makes this super lustrous fiber really special! Quartz knits into a fabric that is supple and smooth, with a slight halo from the suri. From juicy Fresh Fig to bold Cardinal Red, Quartz comes in almost thirty gorgeous colors, inspired by mineral, animal, and vegetable.
