Alpacas are one of the most beautiful South American Camelids. Relate to the LLama, guanaco and Vicuña Alpacas have been valued for their fiber since the Pre- Inca times due to their hair properties. Alpaca fiber is stronger and several times warmer than wool, with an incredibly soft, supple touch and a wonderful fineness which crafters desire. The fiber is semi-hollow, making it very lightweight while possessing thermal warmth unlike other natural fibers. Alpacas come in *2 distinct colors so that the fleece can be blended to produce an infinite array of earth tones. It also can be dyed to produce the marvelous bright or soft colors valued by current fashion trends. Alpaca fibers do not lose strength as the individual fiber diameter grows smaller.
