Mirasol Umina

A luxurious blend of alpaca and extra fine Merino with a gorgeous twist and excellent stitch definition.

The Mirasol Project, established in 2006, was named after a little girl who helped tend a herd of alpaca near Lake Titicaca. The sale of Mirasol yarns and wool combats the extreme poverty for children in the areas of Peru where the wool is sourced (Munani, Neque Neque and Mallkini in Puno) by funding the Mirasol School.
