🧶 Your New Favourite for Spring Knits: Why Baby Alpaca is Perfect for the Season
As the days grow longer and nature awakens in Helsinki, we start reaching for lighter layers — but that doesn’t mean we stop needing warmth. Spring can be chilly, especially in the evenings, and this is where baby alpaca yarn truly shines.
At Villama, we’re thrilled to introduce ALPAKITA – 100% Baby Alpaca, a pehmeä lanka (soft yarn) that’s ideal for in-between seasons. Spun from the finest fibers of the Peruvian highlands, this yarn offers lightness, breathability, and gentle warmth — all without itching.
✨ Why Baby Alpaca is Perfect for Spring

Soft and breathable: Baby alpaca yarn keeps you warm without overheating. It allows your skin to breathe, making it a smart choice for transitional weather.

No itchiness – just softness: It’s incredibly gentle and doesn’t contain lanolin, which makes it suitable even for sensitive skin.
-
Perfect for skin-contact garments: Whether you’re knitting a light sweater, a spring scarf, or a baby blanket, ALPAKITA feels soft and luxurious against the skin.
