They are herd herbivores grazing on the level heights of the Andes, in southern Peru, northern Bolivia, Ecuador, and northern Chile at an altitude of 3,500 m (11,500 ft) to 5,000 m (16,000 ft) above sea level. Andean indigenous people have warmed themselves through the hard winters at high altitude with Alpaca wool for centuries.

Recommended Care:
--Shedding
It is very common for a natural fiber product to shed in the first couple weeks of use. If this occurs, we recommend using a soft bristled brush to pull out any loose hairs. This is a great tool to keep on hand as it is perfect for keeping your blanket in great condition.
--Washing
Due to the fragile nature of the alpaca fibers, Dry Clean is recommended, however, if you prefer to wash, please do so on delicate cycle using a gentle soap.
--Drying
Once the blanket is spun, lay it flat to dry making sure that the blanket is pulled to shape.
--Ironing
Steamer is recommended but iron can be used at low temperatures.
--Maintaining
Alpaca is offers real hair and needs to be treated and cared for delicately. After heavy usage, it is normal that the blanket can look a little frizzy. To restore your blanket back to its original condition, we recommend using the same soft bristled brush mentioned above. Brush in the direction of the hairs. This maintenance will increase the longevity of your blanket as well as soften the fibers!
