The Fibre Co.’s first brushed yarn is processed in a mill in Southern Peru, home of the alpaca. Cirro is a sport weight yarn that combines the long lustrous suri alpaca fibre with merino wool. The brushed effect is created by wrapping this blend around an organic cotton binder thread to achieve a light and airy yarn perfectly balanced for body and drape. Cirro creates a delightfully soft haloed fabric that is light as a feather and easily worn next to the skin.

"Atmosphere" is the name of The Fibre Co.'s first pattern collection in this yarn; the 6 sweater and cardigan patterns can be viewed and purchased as individual PDFs on Ravelry or on The Fibre Co. website. One of the sweater designers has also published a single-skein hat pattern, Farrhat, with the same fluffy honeycomb texture as its sister sweater.
