Alpaca Cloud is a blown yarn which, as opposed to a spun yarn, means that alpaca and merino fibers are blown into an almost invisible tube of nylon net. This creates a feather light yarn that fills out a larger stitch gauge without adding bulk. This is a perfect yarn for light, but warm sweaters and scarves.
