Prairie by Blue Sky Fibers
-
Brand New from Blue Sky - Prairie is a unique, single-ply brushed suri yarn made from 100% alpaca. These 50g / 250m hanks are perfect to carry along with other yarns to create a feathery, soft halo, or all on its own for light and airy garments and accessories.
A super versatile yarn, and gorgeous alternative to Silk Mohair, Prairie is all natural and mixes beautifully with so many yarn lines.
Prairie’s unique blend consists of 53% Suri Alpaca / 47% Baby Huacaya Alpaca. The combination of softness from the Suri Alpaca and the structure from the Baby Huacaya Alpaca creates a magnificent yarn.
Light, airy, and soft, this single-ply, fingering weight yarn comes in a palette of 14 picturesque colours inspired by Minnesota prairies.

Synonymous with high quality, top notch standards and luxurious yarns, Blue Sky Fibers are now celebrating 21 years in the business! We are so happy to stock part of their ever-expanding collection of natural fibers and patterns designed to inspire, excite and delight. We will be varying the ranges offered through the seasons, so if you're a Blue Sky fan, watch this space (and sign up for the Newsletter!).
OUR STORY by Blue Sky FibersCreating consciously crafted fibers and patterns is more than just our focus, it’s our passion. Ever since we started with a small herd of alpacas in our backyard, we’ve been committed to making yarn in the best way possible to show off its natural beauty.
And while our exclusive offerings have grown beyond alpaca to include wool, organic cotton and silk, our desire for getting makers of all stripes excited about natural fibers and knitting hasn’t changed one bit. It all winds back to the yarn, ensuring that every precious, handmade hank is lovingly filled with endless inspiration.Blue Sky Fibers started as a pet project, of sorts. Shortly after graduating college, owner/founder Linda Niemeyer's curious preoccupation with Alpacas led to her buying one. Soon Linda found herself with a lot of yarn on hand. She took it to a nearby yarn store, which was willing to buy and sell it. And the rest, as they say, is history.
Today Blue Sky Fibers is known worldwide for its consciously crafted collection of high-quality natural fibers and patterns. One can only imagine how things might have turned out differently had Linda been obsessed with giraffes instead.
