Hi! I just bought a skein of natural brown alpaca yarn (bulky) and I'm not sure what to do with it.. I couldn't resist! It's so beautiful and soft...!! I want to make something really soft and snuggly.. Ideas? It's just one little skein (3.5 oz).

Yummy, love alpaca...
Ear warmers, head band, hat...Just about anything you can wear and keeps you warm.
Not knowing what kind of patterns you have, I suggest trying the Lion Brand site and putting Alpaca in the 'search for' pattern section. You can also put 'Alpaca crochet patterns' in your search engine and see what it comes up with. And definitely try CPC.

My address is...seriously, I love alpaca and you can do so much with it. Do you have enough for a scarflette?

*gasp!* I had never heard of a scarflette until now and I looked it up on google and it is amazingly cute! That is perfect! Thank you so much. I'm going to go make an army of scarflettes this afternoon. :D :woo

I just made the absolutely gorgeous "Queen Anne's Lace" scarf in ecru alpaca for a Christmas gift..........it's available on Ravelry. Best of all, it's a "freebie"!
