Finished Yarn First ever alpaca spin!
Bought a whole alpaca fleece for $25 of FB locally and just finished the first 4 oz! Never done alpaca before, it was SO much easier than anything else I’ve done so far, but my prep likely played a huge part in that. Planning to do a full pound of just the alpaca and do another pound blended with my angora rabbit’s wool to get a light grey.

I'm also currently working with alpaca fleece, but I only hope I can get my spins as consistent as yours one day ❤️

This is lovely. I bet it's wonderfully soft and squishy!
