Upcoming Fiber Collections for 2012

Put your fiber to work without breaking the bank on shipping costs! We highly recommend you participate in one of our upcoming fiber collections to help increase your profit margins. We will haul your fiber back to our mill free of charge and get it into the manufacturing chain as quickly as possible. By far the most cost effective way to take advantage of our fiber pricing and pay below wholesale on our finished goods.

We also will deliver orders to shows for free! Just place your order online within a week of the show and let us know you'd like to pick it up.

New Fiber Collection Guide
fiber collection header

In 2011 the amount of fiber we collected at collections tripled from the previous year and we learned a lot along the way in handling the increase in volume. We want 2012's fiber collections to run as smooth as possible in order to quickly and accurately get everyone's fiber checked in to their fiber bank accounts. To do so, we sat down and put together this Fiber Collection Guide, it covers the most important aspects of participating in one of our fiber collections.

A must see for all alpaca farms planning on participating in one of this year's fiber collections!

Improved Product Announcement!



We are happy to announce that we've taken our best selling sock and made it even better for 2012! The Survival Sock was first introduced in 2008 and it quickly became a huge success. It's hard to believe but the world was a less volatile place back then. In the spirit of rising up to the challenges of today, we wanted to take our best selling sock and make it even better.

Life isn't just about surviving, but rather thriving in any given environment. To ensure our sock was up to that challenge, we wanted to increase the durability and life span without compromising the warmth and comfort factor. To do this we added a layer of nylon reinforcement across the entire sole of the foot. This new layer of nylon adds an extra layer of defense to handle the elements and conditions thrown it's way, while the alpaca terry loops on the inside of the sock do their part in keeping your feet warm and comfortable. It's the perfect match between outer armor and inner comfort.

Whatever mother nature has to throw our way, we are confident our improved Survival Sock will help us not only survive but thrive!

Stay tuned for many more exciting product announcements in the upcoming months!
