Alpacas come in more than 25 colors. Virtually all the fiber I work with came from our own herd before its dispersal and we love to work with the natural colors. It is important to note that not all products including fabric will have the exact color pictured on our website. This is because each alpaca has its own shades of color, distinct from each other animal in their color family. We do not usually blend the colors, but have the animals fibers milled separately to keep the purity of the coloration.
We have a lovely selection of white alpacas, chosen for their density, the feltability of their fiber and or course their crimp.
Our favorite color of alpaca is black. It is hard to find many true black natural fiber animals, but alpaca are naturally black.
Our grey animals are next in our grouping. These silver grey fibers are one of the cornerstones of our fabric making.
We have two beautiful rose grey females who were the result of our breeding program. This color is warm pinkish grey . Windchime is a perfect example of this magnificent fiber.
Finally we have our shades of brown, faw
n and tan. These rich colors are derived from our rich mahogany brown herdsire, the Cisco Kid. Each off spring has its own unique shade of brown. Cinnamon, the young one above, is one of our favorites to work with.
