About Our Alpaca
Alpaca is a luxurious fibre which comes from the Andes Mountains of Peru and Bolivia and has been prized for its warmth since the time of the Incas. Our range of Alpaca is produced by community groups, mothers’ clubs, workers’ associations and families who live high in the Altiplano of the Andes.
Alpaca is very easy to care for - cool hand wash and then simply wrap in a towel or pillowcase and spin in the washing machine, then hang to dry. Compared to most other fibres, alpaca ages very well, hardly bobbles and needs very little washing. In fact, we believe it is one of the most environmentally friendly fibres for clothing production.
