Alpaca: Bargain of the Week

Seen here with Monkey, a 400g cone of silver grey Alpaca blend yarn from Texere.
It's the softest stuff I've knitted with for a while and, mixed with some Italian wool I picked up in Venice, it's made me an amazingly warm sweater for when we've forgotten all about summer and need to throw on an extra layer to stay comfortable without turning the heating on.
It's £8 for 400g, and you can get it here:

Grab it while it's still around.
