Northwoods Alpacas
has been breeding alpacas for over 8 years. Our
knowledge of alpacas includes breeding,
birthing, boarding, training, shearing and fiber
preparation. We send most of our fiber to two
national cooperatives: New England Alpaca Fiber
Pool & Alpaca Fiber Cooperative of North
America. As members we ship our raw fiber to
them each year and they coordinate the grading,
sorting and processing. We then get to select
end products for our shop. The staff are
dedicated textile experts and they are able to
maintain rigid quality control standards. We
know you will appreciate the results. We also
purchase from US companies that produce alpaca
clothing in Peru. We buy from companies with the
highest ethical standards. This provides the
Peruvian people employment and a higher standard
of life.
Our sweaters,
accessories, and yarns are made from soft and
luxurious alpaca fleece. Alpaca fiber is similar
to sheep wool in some respects but lighter in
weight, stronger, silkier to the touch, not
prickly, and warmer with no lanolin. It is this
lack of lanolin that makes the clothing
hypoallergenic. Alpaca fiber is also sustainably
produced and harvested, making alpaca a natural
choice for today's eco-conscious consumer.
