Alpaca
Alpacas were a cherished treasure of the ancient Inca Civilization. Domesticated over 5000 years ago in the harsh climate of the Andes Mountains of South America, they provided clothing, shelter, fuel and food.

Fiber
Alpacas produce one of the world's finest and most luxurious natural fibres. It is similar to cashmere in fineness and has the strength of mohair. Due to the structural properties of Alpaca fibres, they have superb insulating abilities and the fibre is warmer, stronger and lighter than wool. Alpaca's smoother fibre structure makes it less itchy and good quality Alpaca can be worn next to the skin with comfort. Often, people who cannot wear wool garments due to allergies find that Alpaca garments are the answer for them.
Alpaca contains microscopic air pockets which creates lightweight clothing with good insulating values.
It also has more than 17 natural colors in whites, blacks and browns.

Instructions
Here is some advice to take good care of your garments:

  • Always fold them carefully.
  • Dry clean only if it is said so.
  • Unless otherwise use a soft detergent and cold water (30 centigrade). Rinse and wring very carefuly. NEVER hang your sweater after washing. Spread it on a clean towel, roll them together and squeeze softly.
  • Follow every step indicated in your garment's label.
