Alpaca Comforter Duvet Blanket

What make Alpaca fiber unique? It's warm - each shaft of hair is hollow, creating extra insulative air pockets. It is said that Alpaca fiber is up to eight times warmer than sheeps wool! Fiber Diameter - Alpaca has one of the finest fibers in the world - it ranges from 15 to 30 microns. Hypoallergenic - Alpaca fiber does not contain the lanolin of sheep wool (Our comforter is filled with 100% USA grown and cleaned Alpaca fiber; no sheep's wool blend) It is available in 22 natural colors, eliminating the need for dyes which some people are allergic to. Water Repellant - Because alpacas need to survive in harsh climates, their coats are very water repellant, which carries over to garments and other products made from their fiber. Silky and Soft to the touch - Sheep's wool has little barbs down the shaft of each hair, whereas the Alpaca hair is smooth down the shaft. That makes a finished garment have an extremely soft feel.
