Rare Yarn Colors

A massive list with the rarest and most expensive yarns in the world. Ranked by price, availability, and the softness of the fibers. Llamas come a large variety of colors, which means yarn made of llama fiber can have an extended range of natural colors without having to be dyed.

Llama yarn has high thermal capacity, lightness and high wear durability making it a very desirable yarn for sweaters, hats and coats. Thankfully for the earth and for crafters with lofty yarn stash goals, their populations have recovered - but they are still illegal to hunt. Vicunas range in color from a yellow blond to a medium brunet, and their fiber is kept in its natural state because it is vulnerable to most chemical dyes.
