Alpaca fleece is lustrous and silky. It is similar to sheep's wool but it is warmer, not prickly, and contains no lanolin, which makes it hypoallergenic. Alpaca garments are soft and luxurious. These reversible two-sided scarves are hand-crafted in Peru by native artisans using 50% alpaca and 50% acrylic (for strength) and measure 59 inches by 10 inches. A Fair Trade item.
