I’m obsessed by alpaca. Maybe not obsessed, but I find it cool wool. In clothing, my selection process is all about tactile. That is why online does not work for me. I’m strongly visual too; a picture on a screen is a poor substitute for seeing something in person. Alpaca by Design imports sweaters and scarves, a few other items, from the Inca highlands of South America. Where alpacas are native. Think angora. There are some very beautiful brightly dyed items, almost luminous, which work well with the fine texture of alpaca fiber. All at reasonable prices. If you are a texture person, who is also visual, and you prefer natural fibers(and you are in Sisters, Oregon), Alpaca by Design is worth a visit.
