BABY SURI ALPACA
There are two breeds of alpaca, the Huacaya and the much rarer Suri which is currently only 3% of the world's alpaca population.The Suri alpaca produces a fleece of very unique, rope-like locks that drape down both sides of the animal in different lengths and produces a fibre which has a beautiful rich and silky soft handle with a exquisite lustre. Fibre from the first fleece of the Suri alpaca is even softer and is termed 'Baby Suri Alpaca'. The largest population of Suri alpacas are in Peru, Bolivia and China with some large herds now in North America, Australia, New Zealand and even the UK. Bred solely for their beautiful sustainable fleeces, the Suri alpaca is a particularly alert, friendly and intelligent animal and lives to between 15 and 25 years of age.

Our staff have had many years experience of working with Rowan yarns. Rowan designs never date but sometimes the colours and qualities that were once the original designs, have to be substituted; we can advise on the nearest shades.
