Frequently Asked Questions About Alpaca Blankets and Throws
Are alpaca blankets warmer than wool blankets?
Alpaca fibre is an excellent natural insulator and can provide exceptional warmth without excessive weight. The warmth of any blanket depends on its thickness, weave and construction, but alpaca is particularly valued for its combination of warmth, softness and breathability.
What is the difference between a baby alpaca throw and a brushed alpaca throw?
Baby alpaca refers to a fine grade of alpaca fibre, prized for its softness. Our 100% baby alpaca throws have a beautifully soft, smooth finish, while our brushed alpaca throws have a fluffier, more textured surface created during finishing. Both offer luxurious warmth, but with a different look and feel.
Do alpaca throw blankets shed?
Some alpaca throws, particularly brushed styles, may release loose fibres when new. This is a normal result of the brushing process and generally reduces with use. We recommend giving your throw a gentle shake outdoors, preferably on a breezy day, to help dislodge loose surface fibres.
How do I clean an alpaca blanket or throw?
Alpaca blankets and throws do not need frequent cleaning. Regular airing and careful spot cleaning can help keep them fresh. Always follow the individual product's care label, as some alpaca throws require professional dry cleaning. Avoid machine washing unless the care instructions specifically permit it.
