This super chunky yarn is made with alpaca fiber spun around a cotton core. Our process includes using blankets and neck fiber, resulting in yarns with one-of-a-kind textures and color palettes. 

  • It's incredibly soft and pliable, with a diameter of 1/2'.
  • Great for knitting, weaving or crocheting anything from cozy rugs and home decorating items to fashionable items like headbands and beanies.
  • Limited quantities are available. No two are alike.
  • The bump contains a little over 40 yards and is sourced and dyed in PA, then spun in the USA.

Before we wash our fiber, we blow out the dust! How much dust? This video shows how the dust and second cuts we miss during skirting come right out. Alpacas love to roll in a dust bath. Blowing out the fiber after skirting reduces the amount of water we use. It's that much less dust in our products and saves wear and tear on our equipment.

How to care for your alpaca fiber products

Alpaca Fiber Care Tips

  • Alpaca fiber is naturally antimicrobial, so it doesn't need to be washed often.
  • When it does need a good clean, wash on a gentle cool cycle (preferable a wool cycle if your machine has one) with a mild detergent, or hand wash.
  • For best results, turn your garment inside out before washing.
  • The best way to dry your alpaca garment is just to lay it out on a flat surface to air-dry.
