About the Alpaca:
Unlike wool or cashmere, the hair of the Alpaca is hollow. It's this inner air that gives the alpaca fiber its' ability to capture warmth. At the same time, the straightness of the fiber promotes the transfer of excess heat quickly along its' length, ie. across your body. These two characteristics give Alpaca it's astonishing ability to transfer warmth from warm to cold parts of your body. Exactly what nature evolved over thousands of years for this unique highland animal, the alpaca. Compared with wool, mohair, or cashmere, an Alpaca Sweater is lighter.
These unique characteristics make Alpaca the ideal clothing fiber - for the whole year - winter or summer.
