Alpaca Fiber Qualities What makes the fiber of the Alpaca unique? Fiber Diameter - Alpaca has one of the finest fibers in the world. Fiber is measured in the unit called Microns. Alpaca fiber generally ranges from 15 to 30 microns.
Hypoallergenic - Most people that are sensitive to other fibers find that Alpaca is very hypoallergenic. It does not contain the lanolin of sheep's wool. It is available in 22 natural colors, ranging from white to true black, which can eliminate the need for dyes which some people are allergic to.
Water repellant - Because these animals need to survive in the harsh mountain climate, their coats are very water repellant, which carries over to garments or products made from their fiber. The "wet sheep" smell often associated with wool sweaters when they become wet is not evident in products made of Alpaca fiber.
Soft to the Touch - Sheep's wool has little barbs down the shaft of each hair, whereas an alpaca hair is smooth down the shaft. This makes finished garments have the feeling of extreme softness and most people can wear alpaca fiber garments next to the skin without the "prickle" factor.
Warmth - Again, because of their mountain lifestyle, alpacas have developed fiber that will keep them warm in their high altitude homes. Each shaft of hair is hollow, creating extra insulative air pockets. It is said that alpaca fiber is up to eight times warmer than sheep's wool. Note:
