Mode at Rowan Colourmix Yarn – Luxury Alpaca Wool Cotton Blend Knitting Yarn
Mode at Rowan Colourmix Yarn – Luxury Alpaca Wool Cotton Blend Knitting Yarn
Mode at Rowan Colourmix is a luxury alpaca, wool and cotton blend yarn that creates soft, modern knitwear with effortless colour variation.
Crafted from a premium blend of cotton, wool and alpaca fibres, this yarn features a warm neutral base with gently shifting tones that add depth and interest to your knitting without the need for complex colourwork. The result is a beautifully balanced yarn that delivers softness, breathability and structure in every stitch.
Its unique construction gives Colourmix a light, airy feel with a subtle halo from the alpaca, while the cotton base keeps the yarn breathable and comfortable to wear. Wool adds durability and shape retention, making it ideal for garments that are both stylish and practical.
Perfect for sweaters, cardigans and accessories, this yarn is designed for knitters who want a refined, fashion-forward look with minimal effort.
Direct Sewing Machines & Supplies is proud to introduce Mode at Rowan yarns as part of our growing luxury knitting collection, bringing premium fibres and globally recognised yarn brands to makers across New Zealand.
