What's a good plain wool or wool/alpaca blend yarn, not too expensive, suitable for a stole/shawl, that can be warped for twill, or possibly huck lace, at 8-10 epi?
For boughten yarns I always go with KnitPicks. Their prices can't be beat and they do have both types of yarns you mention. I like a sett of 8 epi with worsted weight knitting yarns, and have woven twills with that.

Sett of about EPI should be about right. However, alpaca fringe is an iffy kind of thing in my experience.
