This is so light and soft, how I imagined a fine wool textile would be. Way too nice for the dog (who tries to seek it out) to lie on.

Beautifully made baby alpaca throw

Product picture

This is a beautiful throw, made of very soft baby alpaca and large enough for two to snuggle. This is very finely made. I've long wished I could purchase another baby alpaca textile since visiting Arequipa a couple of years ago. It's a very special treat to wrap yourself in the gifts of mother nature. Thanks to the master crafts people, Felipe and team!

Alpaca Blankets

The Alpaca has been a central part of Andean culture for over a thousand years. Long-prized for its silken feel and light weight warmth, the fleece of this high altitude native has been woven by villagers into rugs and blankets of surprising color and texture, each village and family bringing their own unique design motifs to their creations. Rojas Yuri of Peru is one such weaver. Weaving Alpaca blankets and throws of incredible color and diversity on an ancient peddle loom, he has bought the simple Alpaca blanket of his ancestors into the 21st Century while still preserving the essence of this thousand year old art. This collection of Alpaca wool blend blankets and throws brings together a superb compilation of the weavers art from artisan families high in the mountains. A blanket from this collection will not only warm you on those chilly winter days, but add a beautiful decorative accent to any home.
