Comments about Alpaca Direct Oriental Jade Merino/Silk:
this merino/silk spins up like a dream. Drafting it is smooth and easy, and the color is glorious, with the white highlighting the blue-jade color, made even more elegant by the sheen.

Comments about Alpaca Direct Oriental Jade Merino/Silk:
I purchased rovings just before Christmas for felting neck scarves. [...] This "Oriental Jade" roving is very turquoise blue,& vibrant. As expected, it felts quickly and very soft w/ beautiful colorings, the silk content giving it a nice sheen.
