Araucania Alga yarn is a unique and eco-friendly yarn produced by Araucania Yarns. It's known for its sustainable composition, as it's made from a blend of seaweed-derived fibers and other natural materials. This innovative blend offers a soft texture and often incorporates vibrant colors inspired by nature. The use of seaweed fibers adds an interesting twist to traditional yarns, providing both environmental benefits and a distinctive look to knitted or crocheted projects. Additionally, the incorporation of seaweed fibers can contribute to the yarn's moisture-wicking properties and overall breathability. Overall, Araucanía Alga yarn appeals to crafters who value sustainability and enjoy experimenting with unconventional materials.
After working with Alga Yarn, we have determined it falls very well into the Sport Weight Category too. This yarn does well knit a bit looser as a DK weight.
