Alpaca fiber has very little lanolin, so unlike wool, is not "greasy".
Because of its fineness, it is not scratchy like wool.
Alpaca has long been a luxury fiber for clothing.
The fineness and crimp of the fiber make it an excellent fiber for
spinning.
It is a
hollow fiber - very light yet very warm.
Alpacas are bred in the United States for fine fiber quality, to increase
the alpaca fiber available on the market.
We have alpaca
and mohair sheared, hand washed, and carded here on our ranch. It
is wonderful for spinning, felting, or blending. Raw fiber is also
available. We also have processed rovings and garment quality felt.
