YOU & ME BOX | ALPACA + VISCOSE

Some yarns are simply made for each other — and Alpaca and Viscose are a pairing that makes perfect sense. The airy, cloud-like halo of Alpaca softens and elevates the fluid drape of viscose, creating a fabric that is at once light and luxurious, structured and soft. Together, they produce knits with a beautiful sheen, a gentle weight, and a refined finish that reads as effortlessly elegant.

Why this box?
The YOU & ME BOX takes the guesswork out of pairing yarns. Both cones are curated to work in harmony — in colour, in weight, and in character. You get 1 cone of 2000 metres of Alpaca and 2 cones of 2000 metres of Viscose each, giving you a generous, balanced combination to complete a full garment without compromise. No hunting for compatible yarns, no colour-matching anxiety — just beautiful threads ready to become something extraordinary.

What can you make?
With this combination held together, you have enough for:
— A lightweight sweater or top in sizes S–XL
— A shawl, wrap, or stole in any size
— A cardigan or open-front jacket in smaller sizes
— A scarf, cowl, or snood with yarn to spare
— Sleeves, yoke, or accent details as part of a larger project

Tips for knitting with this combination
— Hold all three strands together throughout for a consistent, balanced fabric with beautiful drape and a soft halo.
— Needle size matters: use 3–4 mm needles for a denser, warmer fabric; go up to 5–7 mm for an open, airy, and drapey result ideal for layering pieces.
— Viscose loves drape — choose patterns with flowing silhouettes, wide sleeves, or relaxed fits to let the fabric move beautifully.
— Swatch generously before starting — the mohair halo can make it tricky to frog, so it is worth taking the time to get your gauge right from the start.
— Simple stitches shine here. Stockinette, garter, and basic lace all allow the texture and sheen of the yarns to take centre stage.
— Hand wash gently in cool water and lay flat to dry to preserve the halo and the drape of the viscose.

Whether you are knitting your first luxury garment or adding another heirloom piece to your wardrobe, the YOU & ME BOX is a considered, curated starting point — everything you need, nothing you don’t.
