Fowberry Alpacas

SOFT BY NATURE,

                           BEAUTIFUL BY DESIGN

 

The yarn for our knitwear comes only from our herd of alpacas which are sheared once a year. Their fleece is organically processed in as environmentally friendly a way as possible with no dyes or chemicals, thereby protecting the natural lustre and elasticity of this luxuriously soft yarn that looks and feels like cashmere.  Alpaca garments are crafted using yarn in the natural colours of the herd:  jet black, winter white, warm cream, pale fawn, milk-chocolate brown, conker colour, pale grey and rose-grey.  Many garments are made just with one 'named' alpaca's fleece! Please view our many other alpaca product lines: yarn, fly-tying kits, bird nesting material, alpaca fibre hearts, alpaca hot hands and knitted hat kits.

 

The hand knitter who created your unique alpaca knitwear is written on the garment label along with washing instructions. Although alpaca is strong and hardwearing we still suggest treating your garment with the same care as you do your hair: use a mild hand-washing liquid and conditioner. After careful hand washing, hand wring and lay flat to dry. Knitwear can be dry cleaned.
