Alpaca Fiber's Advantage Over Wool
• Stronger (per same fineness)
• Pockets of air are created when spun - items of equal weight are warmer
• Softer, less irritating
• Alpaca fiber is naturally hypo-allergenic
(Alpaca is free from dander and lanolin which cause allergic reactions)
• Alpaca stays cleaner longer because it is lanolin free and doesn’t hold dust
• Alpaca Superfine won’t mat or pill
• Lots of rich, natural colors
• Less shrinkage (washable)
• Thermostatically superior
(50 degree F comfort range vs. 30 degree F for wool)
