The Alpaca throw blankets are so popular! They are made with the finest Alpaca. I have a few different styles and each is made for a purpose. Before I go on, let me point out something very important when buying an Alpaca throw. Many people focus their search based on the amount of Alpaca in a throw blanket, we believe the quality of the Alpaca is much more important than the amount of Alpaca in the blanket. Let me explain.
Alpaca has different qualities. Only the first and second haircut can be classified as "Baby Alpaca". The next 18 years of haircuts we give our Alpacas, we get "Adult Alpaca", which is much more coarse and sometimes considered itchy. People many times think it is due to an allergic reaction to the Alpaca, but Alpaca has no lanolin, so it is just itchy wool.
Since we have our own Alpacas, we keep the first two haircuts for only our products and the next 18 years of haircuts we sell the wool to other companies around the world. So, as you can imagine, "Baby Alpaca" is very expensive, yet worth every penny.
Some of our throw blankets are 90% Alpaca and others are 50% Baby Alpaca and 50% a special acrylic we made just for our blankets. These are wonderful for those who don't like wool but love the warmth of Alpaca and it's ability to regulate heat. You can see the specifics in each listing description.
