How clever to add silk to produce that beautiful sheen on a soft alpaca shawl. Its truly splendid! - Dave

Thank you bolivian warmi and Dave.  I have done this pattern several times now with colours and thought it would be interesting to see how it looked just white on white, now maybe grey and white or black on black would be good ? .............

Curious as to where the 16/2 alpaca yarn comes from.

I bought it from this UK supplier:

It is a little bit hairy, but beautifully soft.

Thanks for the info about the supplier.

     I have admired your work on several pieces you have finished.  This piece is especially beautiful.  You sure have an artist's eye.
