Are you looking at an alpaca that has long, wavy locks, instead of the puffball appearance of a more usual alpaca in full fleece? What you’ve got in front of you is a suri alpaca.There are two primary breeds of alpaca, the huacaya (fluffy) and the suri (silky). Suri alpaca fiber is significantly rarer than huacaya. What is a suri alpaca? What is its fiber like? How do you work with it? Those are all topics covered in this document.

Printed document plus free digital version; 8x8" publication. This document contains theory and practical knowledge for fiber arts enthusiasts of all skill levels. The handouts are heavily illustrated.
