Pascuali's Puno Winikunka is a wonderfully soft blend of cotton and alpaca wool. The 70 percent GOTS-certified cotton as well as the 30 percent alpaca wool come from Peru, where the yarn is also spun.
The mystical mountain Winikunka, also known as “Rainbow Mountain” or “Seven Colour Mountain” served as the inspiration for this yarn. Intense green, purple, yellow, red, and blue make the amazing range of colours which are the result of sedimentary rocks eroding for millions of years. Puno Winikunka with its beautiful shade palette is the result of this colour spectacle.
The blend of smooth cotton with fluffy alpaca wool makes Puno Winikunka a great year-round yarn that can be knitted as well as crocheted using a number of different stitches and patterns.
Puno Winikunka is suitable for light tops as well as accessories such as scarves or shawls. It is pleasantly soft and can also be worn directly on the skin.
