Xotic Xplosion — 100% Llama Handspun Worsted Weight Yarn
Xotic Xplosion
Some animals leave a mark that lasts far beyond their time with you. Xotic Xplosion was one of those animals. A Best of Show winner and one of the finest fiber-producing llamas on our farm, she passed away last winter — and these skeins are among the last tangible reminders of just how extraordinary she was.
Her fleece was true black — not dark brown, not near-black, but genuinely, strikingly true black — and it was nothing short of incredible. Soft, lustrous, and show-stopping. When she walked into the ring, she commanded attention. This yarn carries that same energy.
When these skeins are gone, there will be no more. Ever.
