                                 " Quality is the fiber of our business "


     Please Read

The quality of your fiber starts with your shearer!! Stop letting your shearer control what goes into the bag!!   Things to watch for!

1. Clean your alpacas a few days before shearing, its easier to get the bad stuff out of the fiber while its still on the alpacas vs. once its in the bag. Keep second cuts and seconds separate from main blanket.

2. Bag and mark all fiber as either first or seconds

3. Keep dry

4. Skirt fiber to get the best results in your yarn.

5. Start having your fiber processed, don't just let it sit in your barns or basements. (Promote and sell your fiber)

                              "The time you put into skirting your fiber, you'll get back in your yarn"
