Hilda the Llama: Felted Alpaca Sculpture

Hilda, one of our most talented felters, brought this charming llama to life with a playful twist on Chuculcani pottery traditions from Northern Peru. Her felt interpretation transforms ancient artistry into something wonderfully whimsical and entirely her own. It's a delightful celebration of cultural craftsmanship reimagined through colorful wool and creative flair.

A bit of our felting history:

Lanart pioneered alpaca needle felting in Peru nearly 20 years ago, training a team of artisans in a craft that had traditionally only been practiced with wool. Today, every piece is still authentically handmade by those same skilled artisans—bringing originality, heritage, and genuine alpaca fiber to every little felted critter.
