Raindrop Bag – Featuring Joshua II – DK Weight Alpaca+ Rambouillet Wool + Hemp

$88.00

The Raindrop Bag is a long-time customer favorite, and for good reason.
It is both clever and beautiful, while being knit seamlessly in one piece.

Additionally, sculptural cables and lace panels create striking texture and movement.
As a result, the design offers both visual interest and practical structure.

When paired with Joshua II—our American Fiber Mosaic—this project truly shines.
Together, they balance form, function, and fiber-forward storytelling.

Joshua II blends 40% American alpaca, 40% American wool, and 20% American hemp.
After all, sustainability should never be boring.

The protein fibers provide softness and elasticity, while hemp adds strength and structure.
Moreover, hemp contributes a durable, lower-impact component to the blend.

However, the real magic happens during the dye process.
Because protein and cellulose fibers absorb color differently, variation naturally occurs.

As a result, the fabric develops depth, dimension, and those delightful “ooh” moments.

Ultimately, the finished fabric is rich, dimensional, and slightly overachieving.
Therefore, the bag not only looks beautiful, but also performs exceptionally well.
