What is baby alpaca wool?

Baby alpaca wool is one of the softest and most gorgeous quality wools you can get for your crochet and knitting projects. The wool comes from the alpaca that lives in the Andes Mountains of Peru, where it needs its warm and thick wool to keep warm. Alpaca wool is therefore also 5 times warmer than the classic sheep wool.

Baby alpaca wool does not come from the alpaca foal, although the name might lead one to believe so. Instead, the wool comes from the underside of the alpaca's belly. This wool is extra fine, soft and even more scratch-free than other types of alpaca wool.
