Alpaca Huacaya White - 4oz.

描述

Alpaca is at least 3 times warmer and much finer than most sheep wools, so it is not itchy. There is no natural grease such as the lanolin. So you don't have to wash the fleece before you can spin it. Most hand spinners spin raw, unwashed alpaca into yarn and then wash the finished yarn. Great for blending, felting, spinning. The alpaca we have is very soft, beautiful, and clean (very little, if any dirt or vegetable matter). Comes in 4 oz. bags. Alpaca is at least 3 times warmer and much finer than most sheep wools, so it is not itchy. Since it contains no lanolin, it will not hold the dirt like a sheep's fleece will, but the animals do roll and take dust baths; if you are sensitive to dust, you will want to wash it before carding and spinning. Great for blending, felting, spinning. The alpaca we have is very soft, beautiful, and clean (very little, if any dirt or vegetable matter). If you want enough to spin for a sweater, you'll need approximately 2 lbs. of fleece.
