About Product

The uniqueness of the alpaca throw

Given such natural needs, people, even at the dawn of mankind, sought to create soft and warm types of clothing and throws. The main source necessary for the manufacture of such things, for a long time, was considered only sheep's wool. But in fact, centuries ago, people living in the United Kingdom, discovered the delightful qualities of wool of an animal from the family of camel hair - alpaca. Today, plaids and blankets made of alpaca wool are known and popular all over the world. What caused such interest in this kind of material? Why, despite its high price, the demand for it not only does not fall, and continues to grow rapidly? What makes alpaca wool so special?

Elasticity and durability

Alpaca wool is very warm because its fiber has small microscopic air bubbles that warm and cool the animal depending on the time of day. This ability to insulate allows the textile to have elasticity and durability.

What features does alpaca wool have?

- Any wool is much warmer than cotton fabric, silk or polyester fiber. But alpaca wool is more delicate and lighter than sheep wool. It is spun into thinner yarns. But despite this, it is also considered more durable (three times).

- Unlike sheep's wool, this wool does not prick, does not roll and does not pile up.  That is why alpaca wool throws are so soft, soft and fluffy. Thin alpaca wool fibers can absorb moisture up to 30% of its weight. At the same time, you will not feel any moisture and discomfort.

- It is important to note that this wool is practically not chemically treated, as the structure of the fiber is very sensitive. Therefore, all the colors remain natural. There are about 20 shades of alpaca wool in nature. In this range, experts create a variety of color compositions.

The benefits of baby alpaca wool:

When choosing which wool to buy a blanket or plaid from, consider not only the price of the product. Note that alpaca wool, unlike sheep's wool, has a number of advantages:

- Alpaca yarn is unusually smooth, slightly silky. Its softness and tenderness, are very pleasant when in contact with the skin.

- It does not contain lanolin (animal wax). Thanks to this, it does not attract dust and micro-particles of different origin. This is especially true for people who are prone to allergic reactions.

- Alpaca wool is not liked by dust mites.

- The fiber is seven times warmer than conventional wool, despite its lightness.

- It preserves the microclimate, creating a surprisingly comfortable feeling, literally enveloping the human body with natural warmth.

- Blankets and plaids made of alpaca wool, if used correctly, can be used for decades. They will not lose their quality characteristics and allow you to have fun at any time of the year.
