Obsessed with the quality of our alpaca fleece this year! 🤍🦙
We made some nutritional changes to our feeding program over the winter, and the difference is incredible. The fleece is so much softer, and has such a beautiful crimp. I’m convinced this is the softest thing you’ll ever feel!
These photos are from skirting day. Skirting is the process of removing any coarse fibres, vegetable matter, and lower-quality sections from the fleece before it’s sent away to be professionally processed. It’s a bit of a messy job, but it’s one of the most important steps in creating beautiful, high-quality yarn.
Now it’s all packed up and ready to head off for processing. I can’t wait to see it come back as gorgeous yarn! 🧶
