The smooth, heavenly soft texture of royal alpaca is reason enough to own this elegant scarf. But there’s more. It’s sized at approximately 65" long x 12" wide - plus 3" fringe at each end - offering generous coverage and adding warmth and wrapping options. And its fine, lightweight weave means this scarf packs easily in your briefcase or backpack so it’s always available when breezes stir. 100% alpaca wool.
“Royal Baby Alpaca” refers to the fineness of the alpaca wool—not the age of the animal—and is the softest grades of alpaca wool available, most often compared to Merino wool in feel. Softer, lighter, and warmer than sheep’s wool, alpaca wool is naturally water-repellent and a thermal insulator, even when wet. Because alpaca wool contains no lanolin, it’s also hypoallergenic and can be worn next to the skin (it doesn’t cause that “scratchy” feeling in those sensitive to regular wool products). Over 80% of alpaca wool comes from Peru, supporting over 50,000 families living in the Andes mountains; it is widely considered one of the most eco-friendly natural fibers.
