Here are some skeins from Abel
Abel 1 & 2 -- both of these are from the same run. Both are 3-ply and 9sts/inch. Each is very uniform as you can see in the pictures. Both have some loose kinks that will not affect their use or appearance made into something; you see see a few of these kinks near the center of the second picture of Abel 2. Although these feel softer than wool, Abel did not have a small micron count so this is not as soft as most other alpaca yarns.
