Know before you buy
Alpaca fiber is naturally smoother and lacks the microscopic scales found in sheep's wool, which makes it significantly softer and less itchy against the skin. It is often considered a hypoallergenic alternative for those who find standard wool irritating.
Yes, alpaca fiber is thermoregulating, meaning it provides warmth in the winter while remaining breathable enough to prevent overheating during milder seasons. It is an excellent choice for layering throughout the year.
To preserve the natural fibers, we recommend dry cleaning or gentle hand washing in cool water with a wool-specific detergent. Always lay the throw flat to air dry away from direct sunlight to maintain its shape and texture.
Like all natural fibers, some minor shedding or pilling can occur with initial use due to the nature of the weave. Gentle care and occasional brushing with a soft-bristled garment brush will help keep the fibers smooth and minimize pilling.
Yes, these throws are sourced from generational breeders in the Peruvian Andes who prioritize the welfare of their herds. The traditional handweaving process supports local artisans and maintains sustainable, time-honored practices.
