    Fibre: 100% organic baby alpaca 
    Dyes: Ökotex Standard 100: without optical brighteners, not chemically finished
    100% Biodegradable: Yes
    Machine Washable: No (see our guide to washing wool)

    Care: Wash only when required. Hand wash in cold water with wool wash, minimising agitation, and dry flat out of direct sunlight. 

    Origin notes: This Peruvian baby alpaca fibre comes from animals that graze the Andes naturally as they have done for many generations and are managed by small holders at altitudes of 3000-5000m. At those heights food cannot be grown so alpaca farming provides an income to families. Since the area is not cultivated or chemically fertilised or the animal's diet supplemented with feed, they graze on organic mountains although Organic Certification is not possible in those conditions. The animals are sheared by hand once a year.
