Juniper Moon Farm Fairy Floss is a light, airy bulky yarn made from extrafine wool, baby alpaca, and polyamide. Its lofty construction creates plenty of volume without the heaviness you might expect from a yarn this thick, while the wool and alpaca give the finished fabric warmth and a soft halo.

Fairy Floss is also self-striping, with colors shifting as you knit to create bold, multicolored fabric with very little effort. And with an unusually generous 328 yards in each 100-gram skein, it offers far more yardage than many traditional bulky yarns.

Colors, top row: folklore, charm, and daydream.
Colors, bottom row: illusion, whimsical, and mirage.
