Alpaca Fleece - new
crop every year
Prices for raw huacaya fleece start at $5
Cdn. per pound for coarse grade 6 up to $50 Cdn. per pound
for Ultra Fine. We also have a small quantity of suri fibre
available. There is a use for each grade of alpaca fibre
however the lower the microns (diameter of individual
fibres) the smoother the feel. For garments that are to be
worn next to the skin we would suggest Grades 1 through 3
fibre.
