With approximately 230 metres per 100g skein, it’s lightweight yet full of personality. Alp Natural is perfect for warm-weather garments, relaxed layering pieces and projects that celebrate texture.
 
If you’ve been wondering where to buy textured yarns in Australia that feel as good as they look, Alp Natural is your next summer staple.
 
A Yarn with a Story
 
Alp Natural is nature in yarn form: rustic, radiant and richly textured. This yarn combines the classic coolness of cotton, the crispness of linen, the soft shimmer of silk and the gentle drape of viscose into a slubbed yarn that dances between matte and shine, smooth and rough, subtle and bold.
 
Hand-tied and hand-dyed in Türkiye, each skein of Alp Natural is as unique as your stitches. It comes in a range of earthy solids and painterly variegations, offering something for every aesthetic whether you’re drawn to quiet sophistication or joyful colourplay.
 
This is a yarn for crafters who love the character of natural fibres and want their work to reflect the wild, imperfect beauty of the handmade.
 
Why You’ll Love It
 
Alp Natural is delightfully different: textured, breathable and made for makers who want more from their yarn. The slub texture adds natural variation and visual interest, so even the simplest patterns come alive.
