Alpaca wool is a very wool-like material. Reminiscent of sheep's wool and has the same properties as well as several others and better ones. Alpaca wool is more classified as a hair fiber. It is softer, lighter and more durable than sheep's wool.

Alpaca wool may itch a little at first. This is because when the yarn is spun from alpaca, the ends of the fiber are sharp. Unlike other wools, alpaca wool becomes soft in use as the ends of the fiber are rounded.

It is not. Baby alpaca wool is the name of wool quality. Peruvians have named a certain quality of alpaca wool as Baby. This quality can be measured in microns. Baby's micron size is 22 microns.

There are many differences between merino and alpaca wool. First of all, alpaca wool is technically not even wool, but a hair fiber. The most common differences between alpaca wool and merino wool are its active moisture transfer ability, always mulesing-free and the fact that the animal is more ecological compared to sheep.
