- Alpaca sweaters are light, soft, warm.
- Alpa knits are Perfect for all seasons since alpaca fiber is hollow which means that it doesn’t absorb the moisture, but instead sheds it and pushes it away. When heat comes off of your body, it works as an engine to push the moisture molecules to the exterior of the garment, through the hollow fibers meaning that it won’t become saturated, heavy or stay wet. This grants it the ability to wick moisture off of your body at an 85% greater rate than any wool product ever could. Because alpaca fleece wicks moisture away so well it is the most breathable natural fiber and therefore keeps you cool in the summer!isholIt holds more heat than any other fiber in cold climates, and is light and cool for hot days. Since the alpacas resist temperatures of -0 degrees during the nights and more than 25 degrees during the day under the intense Andean sun.
