DROPS Alpaca + DROPS Brushed Alpaca Silk

For a brown combination with the softness and warmth of silk and alpaca, try working together DROPS Alpaca 607, brown and DROPS Brushed Alpaca Silk 05, beige.

The result has a knitting tension of about 15 stitches = 10 cm using 6 mm needles, which is a perfect fit for patterns in knitting tension group 15 - 14 stitches.

Remember however that knitting tension varies from person to person and that the suggested needle size is only a guide. You can adjust the needle size to get a different tension - or match the tension recommended in the pattern you are working with. Just make a swatch!
