Our own alpaca rug
This stunning rug is made from our own alpaca fibre, spun and woven by the very talented Chris Hammacott from Pocket House Studio on the Isle of Lewis. We sent her our fibre, direct from the shorn animals and Chris did the rest. It is just beautiful and a credit both to her skills and our amazing alpacas who put up with the indignity of being shorn once a year and who, for a while, look faintly ridiculous. All four have their fibre in this rug and we are so pleased we are going to send more fibre to Chris to hopefully produce at least another couple.
