The Herd
Our Huacaya alpacas are bred to Camelot Tor — ten-time Supreme Champion. The females were selectively mated with him, and you can see it in the fleece: fine, soft, dense.
The Fleece
100% alpaca, undyed, natural off-white. No bleaching, no dyes, no additives. Hypoallergenic and lanolin-free — good for sensitive skin. Warmer than merino (the semi-hollow core traps air), but lighter. Takes dye beautifully if you want colour.
The Mill
The fleece goes to Fibre Naturally in Macclesfield, Victoria — three generations of one family, scouring to spinning. They do good work.
The Skeins
Two weights, same fleece.
