ECO-FRIENDLY & SUSTAINABLE They specialize in Alpaca fiber. Alpaca is quickly becoming one of the world’s most renowned sustainable & eco-friendly fibers. The alpacas are sheared once a year in spring and the fiber is spun into yarn. Superior to wool, alpaca fiber is extremely soft, light-weight, and amazingly warm with its’ naturally insulating core. It does not contain lanolin, making it hypoallergenic—the perfect combination for cold weather accessories!
