ALPACA - This fine fiber ranges from 18 to 30 micron, on average, and is a dream to work with. Spinners find out pretty quick that alpaca is softer and finer than most other fibers. Since alpaca comes in over 20 natural colors, there is lots to choose from.
We will be working at making our own blends with alpaca - alpaca and mohair for strong sock yarn, alpaca and wool for nice springy yarn to make garments with, and then natural alpaca for hats, scarves, woven items and whatever else the imagination will offer.
ANGORA RABBIT - Soft, silky, luxurious are just some words to describe the wonderful feel that you get once you touch some beautiful fiber from these adorable bunnies! This will be specialty runs probably only offered once or twice per year
ANGORA GOAT - Mohair is called "the diamond fiber" because of its wonderful strength. The silky locks sheared from this delightful goat yield wonderful options of use.
LLAMA - This fiber lends itself to hard-wearing items, locker hooked or punch-needle rugs, outer wear and even woodsmen socks. There are lots of ways to utilize this hardy fiber. If you felted llama fiber you could make awesome horse blankets, or some neat fabric to make bags?
WOOL - Who can resist those cute little lambs in the springtime? Well they produce some of the most beautiful soft fiber that can be utilized in so many ways. From garments to rugs you can use this wool to make numerous cold weather items.
