Inspiring your creativity

Alpacas

Meet our alpacas. We have 28 alpacas ranging from white to deep black. Alpaca fibre is luxuriously soft, warm and hypo-allergenic as it contains no lanolin. We use the fibre for spinning and felting. Students have the option of using alpaca fibre in our felting and dyeing workshops.
