Puno mainly consists of the finest and softest baby alpaca (68%) and an addition of 10% of the finest and softest merino wool and 22% synthetics for a thin net into which the baby alpaca and merino wool are stuffed. All are ecotex 100 certified and for sure all wool in all Gepard products are mulesing free.
This special production method results in a full but light yarn that runs about the double yardage compared to a traditional, spun yarn.
This is probably the softest yarn I have ever worked with. It is almost like cashmere but with such a beautiful, raw look. Puno is very easy to knit with – both for beginners and those who are only able to with with light and elastic yarns. It is a super comfortable yarn to the touch.
