Mulberry Silk + Baby Alpaca + Merino. AMELIE is the most luxurious, softest and lightest yarn in the world. It is impossible to describe it in mere words.
Amelie's extremely light and beautiful texture is the result combining three premium fibers using a new technology which blows light tubes of yarn instead of twists.
We stock every single colour, including the brand new RED, ORANGE and PURPLE!
We couldn't say it better than mathemaknitter on Ravelry:
"This is one of the most gorgeous yarns I’ve ever worked with, and I’ve had the luxury of being able to afford whatever yarn I want, so I have worked with some fabulous cashmere and cashmere blends and lots of silk.
The yardage is also pretty fabulous for something that knits up at an aran-weight, so you will find that it’s not so expensive (by meterage) and it makes a gorgeously light and drapey garment.
And this yarn totally deserves to be a next-to-skin garment. If you wear it by itself, it’s light and breathable and lovely, and if you need to be extra-warm, a light coat over it will keep you thoroughly warm. :)"

We are so so proud to be the sole UK stockist for Illimani Yarns. We know you'll LOVE their gorgeous yarns as much as we do.
After many years in the fashion business importing ready-to-wear collection of alpaca and llama wool apparel hand-made by artisans in Bolivia, Illimani decided it is time to focus on the yarn. By applying all their experience on knits and fine wools to carefully select the very best natural yarns in the world at unbeatable prices.
Illimani has worked with thousands of artisans in Bolivia and Peru, many of which have mastered the art of knitting and crocheting. Our mission is to provide the materials and the inspiration to our customers to help them create their own artisanal textiles.
Illimani work along with international aid organisations to support artisans in the Bolivian and Peruvian Andes commercialize their products in the North American markets.
