Alpaca fiber has been prized since the Inca Empire, when it was reserved exclusively for royalty. Today, the alpaca still roam freely in the highlands of the Peruvian Andes. Their soft, padded feet cause minimal damage to the landscape, and the shearing process causes them no harm. It's a fiber that's been working in harmony with its environment for centuries.
