*AW24 version of our popular alpaca leggings in three beautiful colours, now with softer waistband - colours: Light Peacock, Salt & Pepper & Mocha - listed separately*
High waisted fine rib knitted leggings made from super soft 100% organic baby alpaca. Designed by UMIFORM, our own Woollykins Women's label and ethically made in Peru in collaboration with my alpaca Copenhagen.
We have designed these alpaca leggings for maximum comfort and warmth. They have a high waist, they are long in the leg meaning they can fit tall women. The rib is very stretchy and accommodating all lumps and bumps. The high waist can be worn high to cover the belly and kidneys and is stretchy enough to comfortably cover a growing baby bump. They baby alpaca is not at all itchy, it's super soft and feels much like wearing a warm cloud. However you can also wear over the Engel wool/silk leggings if you need that extra warmth and security. A very special, hard to find Winter warmer that is sure to be loved by Women of shapes and sizes.
Our AW24 version has an extra soft and stretchy elastic waist. It keeps the same 2x4 rib and tapered legs and leg cuffs of our AW23 version.

Baby alpaca fibres are super soft and lightweight. It is known for providing super insulation due to the microscopic air pockets in the fibres, therefore it keeps you warm in the winter and cool in the summer. The same air pockets make the fibres feel as light as air and yet the fibre is very strong, meaning it lasts longer than most other similar fibres like wools, cashmere and silk. With care, alpaca knits become heirloom pieces that you will want to keep forever.
N.B: Alpaca fabric behaves differently to wool and tends to "drop" a little with wear.
Colour: Light Peacock (also available in Moch and Salt & Pepper - listed separately) -low impact dyes
