Title: Alpaca fleece - a small snippet
Post by: laurelrus on October 14, 2014, 09:10:33 am

My daughter is doing textile AS level and is going to put a sample of wool from our sheep and would like a very small sample of alpaca wool, as it comes straight off an alpaca. I'm happy to pay for this and for the postage if anyone would be kind enough to send some? She only needs a very small snip, it's just to go in her sketchbook to show the different textures and fibres etc.
Thanks very much

I have some alpaca waiting to be spun. Send me a pm with your address and I will pop some in the post for you. Don't worry about the postage, it will take more effort to send it than it will cost me to pop it in an envelope.
