Product Features
Crafted with alpaca wool, this item boasts all of the best qualities of this treasured fiber: hypoallergenic, water-repellent, soft to the touch, and able to insulate much better than even sheep's wool.
Working with Fair Trade certified organizations is an important part of what we do. This product is made by artisans that are fairly compensated for their skilled work, and helps provide a living wage as well as safe work conditions.

Made the traditional way, these dreamy alpaca scarves are created on hand-looms by women artisans in Bolivia. Keep toasty while warming your heart, knowing your support helps these women preserve traditional textiles and create a better life for themselves, their children, and their community.

Great Gift

I gave one of these alpaca scarves to my sister, and she loves the softness of the wool and the warmth it provides on walks in the Wyoming wind. I like the length of the scarf I bought for myself because it tucks into the front of my jacket without being bunched up or bulky. I definitely agree with my sister about the softness and the warmth! This is a wonderful product.
