It is a highly sought-after material for spinning and felting, and for good reason. Let's explore the unique characteristics of alpaca fibre and how it can be used for spinning and felting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-description-short lessmore\"\u003e\u003ca href=\"#\" class=\"readmore\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eRead More\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-description-full\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat is Alpaca Fibre \u0026amp; Where Does it Come From?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe alpaca, a domesticated South American mammal related to the llama, is used to produce alpaca fibre. The fibre, which can range in colour naturally from white to black with hints of brown, grey, and fawn in between, is shorn once a year, usually in the spring. The fibre has a velvety softness similar to cashmere or mohair and is naturally hypoallergenic.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOne of the distinguishing characteristics of alpaca fibre is warmth. It is ideal for apparel in cold climates because it is three times warmer than sheep's wool. Due to the natural moisture-wicking properties of alpaca fibre, it won't feel damp to the touch until it has absorbed up to 30% of its weight in fluids. For those who prefer outdoor activities or live in humid climates, this makes it a terrific alternative.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow is Alpaca Fibre Used?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAlpaca fibre can be spun on a variety of spinning wheels or drop spindles, and the resulting yarn will have a natural sheen and drape. This fibre is kn\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eown for its softness, durability, and luxurious appeal, which is why it has become a favoured choice for spinners seeking to create exquisite yarns.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFelting is another popular use for alpaca fibre. Alpaca fibre can be felted using both wet felting and needle felting techniques. It's worth noting that different Alpaca fleeces can vary in their felting properties. Some fleeces have a higher percentage of guard hairs, which are coarser and less suitable for felting. Therefore, it is often recommended to select fleeces with a higher proportion of fine, soft fibres for felting projects.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eBuy Alpaca Fibre Online in Australia\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAlpaca fibre is a luxurious fibre perfect for spinning and felting.

One example is wool, which is well-known for its insulating and durable qualities.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese fibres are distinct from wool because of their special qualities. For instance, alpaca fibres are so soft and light that they are ideal for crafting delicate garments like shawls and scarves. Yak strands are renowned for their warmth and tenderness, whereas camel fibres are extremely strong and maintain their shape well. Overall, animal fibres give spinners and felters a variety of alternatives for producing high-quality, attractive, and useful textiles.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe most common animal fibre used for spinning and felting is wool. It comes from sheep and possesses wonderful features like the capacity to maintain its shape, fend off wrinkles, and act as a heat and cold insulator. Wool is a fantastic material for constructing comfortable clothing because it is also very absorbent. Wool fibres also feature scales that cause them to adhere to one another, producing a sturdy and long-lasting material.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTop 3 Animal Fibres Used for Felting\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWool.\u003c\/strong\u003e This fibre obtained from sheep, is a versatile and widely used animal fibre.

Ashford Alpaca roving can be spun using the same methods as wool and can be blended with other fibres like silk or cashmere to produce beautiful yarns for knitting or crocheting.
This premium 100% alpaca is 21.5 micron, a lovely bright white colour and is ready to spin. It's available in 100g or 1kg lots.
