Alpaca wool has a naturally insulating core, keeping you warm without weighing you down! And there are MANY more benefits of choosing Alpaca Wool over traditional Sheep's Wool. Such as: It takes color easily, so there are no toxic processes needed to prepare the wool for dying. Also, Alpaca wool has no lanolin in it, which some people find irritating to their skin. Alpaca wool is super-soft, whereas sheep's wool can be scratchy. Alpacas belong to the Camel family, and they drink less water, so they are our eco-friendly buddies! Another interesting thing about Alpacas is they have TOES, not Hoofs, so they do less damage to the land they graze upon! (And they are so cute, that never hurts!)
We can assure you these Alpacas are never harmed by their annual shearing, and the animals are valued and carefully cared for by their owners in South America. The weaving also is done by skilled Ecuadorian artisans. Fair Wages are earned by the weavers, positively affecting their whole family. Their weaving skills have been passed down from their elders, for generation upon generation, and your purchase enables that tradition to continue.
(One more thing... "Baby Alpaca Wool" means the "first shear", or the highest quality - not the wool from a baby.)
