What Is Alpaca Fiber? 

Alpaca was once considered a gift from the gods and the most important relic of Incan history. Alpacas are in the camelid family, sharing the most genetic material with the vicuña. They are one of the four South American camelids. 

The two breeds of alpacas are: the Huacaya and the Suri. The types of fiber harvested from each of these breeds are equally prized for different reasons. Fiber derived from alpacas varies in weight depending on how it is spun, making it ideal for a number of different kinds of products. Compared to sheep’s wool, alpaca fiber is considerably softer, and more durable.

The Magic Behind Lanart Alpaca Socks

Alpaca is the best natural fiber for socks, with a hollow core yielding tons of advantages. Your feet will stay at an optimum temperature, so you can do the things you love regardless of the weather. Baby alpaca is super soft, doesn't rub, constrict, or bind. It will help prevent blisters, and won't irritate sensitive feet. The breathability of this natural fiber makes it a suitable sock for most of the year. The 80% baby alpaca yarn that we use retains all the wonderful natural qualities of alpaca.
