Our Alpaca's:
The Huacaya [wah-KAI-ah] has
waviness or "crimp" which makes the fiber stand out about the animal
like a teddy bear. These are the type of alpaca's on our
ranch. They are shy, intelligent creatures and a delight to
have on the ranch. Alpaca's are gentle on the land and are our
fiber herd. Also see "Suri's".

Alpaca History:
Secrets of the Alpaca Mummies
Fiber Art: People who work
with natural fibers are discovering the virtues of alpaca for
creating a wide range of products. Some purchase fiber,
rovings or yarn from alpaca owners. We enjoy these gentle
creatures and will be processing the fiber to spin into yarn for
weaving, knitting and crocheting.
