Made from
Purl Alpaca Designs' are exclusive to us and they are named after baby alpacas born to our herd or alpacas whose fleece makes our yarn for that year.
Our 100% pure alpaca yarn is not dyed, all the colours are completely natural and the fibre is sourced from our own herd. It is spun in England.
We have just invested in our baby alpaca/silk blend which is dyed to add an extra dimension to our range. This yarn has a slight sheen from the silk and is exquisitely soft and easy to work with.
Once made, we recommend hand-washing as the best way to ensure Alexis keeps shape and lasts for years. We do however provide Care Instructions which gives extra tips on how to look after your Purl Alpaca Design.
