Fiber Content
Downy is over-the-top — as in soft layered upon soft. It’s a thoughtful blend with each fiber adding something to the whole: alpaca (50%) brings substance and warmth, cashmere (34%) offers a velvety hand, and elastane (16%) holds everything together with lightweight elasticity. It just might be our cuddliest base yet! A word about that dash of elastane — it’s just enough to help the finished item keep its shape, making Downy truly perfect for any garment or accessory!
Dimond Laine Downy Worsted (50% Alpaca, 34% Cashmere, 16% Elastane; 215 yards per 100g skein)
Hand wash suggested. Lay flat to dry.
