Would any of you crafty people happen to be or know fiber artists who could make use of some free alpaca fiber? I have at least 100lbs, collected over many years, straight off the animal, not cleaned or skirted.
I have whites, fawns and browns, first cuts and seconds. It spins up beautifully or can be felted. All suri alpaca.

Depending on how far its going, we may discuss shipping arrangements. It really needs a new home before little bugs start to move in.

Sara, someone was looking for roving in the marketplace. Could Alpaca wool work, too I wonder?

I could help you use some. I have $10 for shipping. Also I read somewhere that patchouli is a natural insect repellent for wool, and I have half a bottle of that I could give you in return. Thanks.
