SORIANO by Pecci Filati is not just another alpaca blend. This premium Italian lace-weight yarn is made with 45% Baby Suri Alpaca, 25% Extrafine Unshrinkable Merino Wool, and 30% Polyamide, creating a soft, airy, fluffy yarn with beautiful halo, warmth, and modern Italian knitwear character. It is perfect as a luxury companion strand or worked in multiple strands for lightweight sweaters, cardigans, shawls, scarves, and soft atmospheric garments.

What makes SORIANO special is the quality of the blend.

This is the type of yarn that can make a simple project look softer, richer, and more expensive.

⚑ Why This Yarn Is Special
SORIANO stands out because it combines Baby Suri Alpaca with Extrafine Unshrinkable Merino Wool, not standard wool. That makes the yarn softer, more refined, and more practical for real garments.

The Baby Suri creates the dreamy halo, the merino adds comfort and elasticity, and the polyamide supports the structure so the yarn remains light, fluffy, and wearable.

This is an excellent yarn for knitters who want softness and halo without making the finished fabric too heavy.

✧ Fiber Profile
• Baby Suri Alpaca — silky softness, halo, warmth, and airy fluffiness
• Extrafine Unshrinkable Merino Wool — comfort, elasticity, softness, and improved stability
• Polyamide — durability, structure support, and practical wearability

➤ IMPORTANT — Yarn Usage
SORIANO works beautifully in two main ways:

• As a companion strand held with another yarn
• In multiple strands by itself

As a companion yarn, it adds softness, halo, warmth, and a more luxurious finish. It is especially beautiful with rustic wool yarns, including Dundaga, because it softens the fabric while preserving the character of the main yarn.

Used by itself in several strands, SORIANO creates soft, warm, lightweight garments with an elegant fluffy texture.

Perfect for:

• Sweaters
• Cardigans
• Shawls and wraps
• Scarves and cowls
• Oversized soft knitwear
• Companion-yarn projects
• Lightweight luxury accessories

➤ Approximate Yarn Usage
Usage depends on whether SORIANO is used alone or as a companion strand.

• Companion strand sweater addition: approx. 100–250 g
• Shawl or scarf: approx. 80–200 g
• Multi-strand sweater: approx. 250–500 g
• Oversized cardigan: approx. 400–650 g
