Alpacas are rather adorable looking animals with soft, silky fleece. They are similar in appearance to llamas but too small to be used to carry large objects. Alpacas have been raised for thousands of years in South America for their wool and meat. Raised mainly in the Andes Mountains of Peru, Bolivia, Ecuador, and Chile, alpacas are also now seen in North America and other parts of the world.
Alpaca fleece is used similarly to sheep wool, with the material made into sweaters, scarves, as well as other types of clothing and bedding. One of the benefits of alpaca fleece is that it does not contain lanolin. For some people, lanolin, which is found in sheep wool, causes allergic reactions. Alpaca fleece comes in numerous colors as well. The ancient Incas considered alpaca fleece fit for royalty.
