Hikoo Alpico Yarn
"Colors are amazing and feels very soft. Great for those who love the look of wool but may be allergic. Love that Woolery made the color guide to easily match this to the 8/2 Tencel to make some really lovely scarfs."

Hilo Alpico
"Just finished weaving a scarf using twill pattern. I think next time I will try plain weave as you can’t really see the pattern. As well, I would like it to be a bit looser so I plan to use 8 dent rather than 12 and see how that turns out. The yarn is nice to work with. Also the colors would pop more if I alternated the warp with a contrasting solid color. That’s my plan for my next project."
The Hikoo Alpico Yarn is
"The Hikoo Alpico Yarn is beautiful, soft and very easy to use for weaving. I wove a lovely scarf with Hikoo for weft and Tencel warp using the pattern from The Woolery website and it is lovely."
