Alpaca Fiber, Goat Fiber

Alpaca is wonderful to spin! It is very soft, fine, and slides thru your fingers, without the grab of wool. 

Huacaya alpaca is crimpy and soft. Suri alpaca is silky and lustrous. Suri fiber was once reserved for Inca royalty dating back thousands of years. 

The fiber can also be used to stuff pillow, or to felt. Felted handbags, or purses, or other products. Felted alpaca can also be used as quilt batting. Alpaca fiber dyes beautifully.

Alpaca fiber has a hollow core that gives it great thermal properties. While being warm in cold weather, it can breathe and is comfortable for any season.
