Why Alpaca?
Alpaca is one of the world’s most valuable natural fibers. It’s hypo-allergenic as it does not contain lanolin, the chemical found in many natural fibers, including wool, that is responsible for people’s allergies. It’s highly durable, lightweight and doesn’t itch, but has a naturally insulating core, keeping you nice and toasty.
