Alpaca wool
Our main collection is our Alpaca range. The Alpaca yarn is a hollow fiber which traps more air and makes it warmer than merino. It is thicker which makes it suitable for slightly heavier socks and cold whether activities. Our most successful range and a great introduction to the brand is our Winter and Christmas socks.
