Made from
Purl Alpaca Designs' are exclusive to us and they are named after baby alpacas born to our herd.
Our 100% pure alpaca yarn is not dyed, all the colours are completely natural and the fibre is spun in Dorset by a specialist spinning mill.
Once made, we recommend hand-washing as the best way to ensure Quito 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.
