We’re so excited to share something very special with you — our latest handspun 8ply alpaca yarn, made from the fleece of one of our most beloved alpacas, Vinky.
Vinky is a real character here at Little Valley Farm. She’s not only one of our best herd guardians, but she also has the most beautiful fleece you can imagine. Her colouring is genuinely unique — a rich, warm dark fawn/caramel saddle, with a white underbelly and legs that add a gorgeous natural contrast. We've included some photos of Vinky below so you can see her stunning coat for yourself (although it's always tricky to capture the exact hues perfectly on screen!).
The yarn we've created from Vinky’s fleece is a luxurious 8ply handspun — slightly chunky, soft, and full of character. Each skein reflects the love and care that goes into every part of our farm, from Vinky’s paddock to the spinning wheel.
This is a limited-edition yarn, available while supplies last. Once it’s gone, that’s it until Vinky’s next shearing — and even then, no two batches are ever the same. That’s the magic of working with small-farmed, handspun alpaca fleece: every skein carries its own story.
If you’re looking for something truly special for your next knitting or crochet project — or a gift for a fibre lover — this yarn is a little piece of Little Valley Farm you can hold in your hands.
* Available now in our online store.
* 8ply handspun, limited edition.
* Natural colours — no dyes, just Vinky’s beautiful fleece.
We can’t wait to see what you create with it!
Warmly,
Daniela
This photo captures the best fleece colouring from Vinky with Abbie in the background.
This photo has slighly blown out the colouring but you can see her dark fawn sadle with white underbelly contract.
Below is a video with Vinky taking her guarding duties very seriously.
