Owning Alpaca
Hi! My name is Debby and my goal is to share information about raising alpaca and using the luxurious fleece they produce. My favorite form of fiber art is felting. I love making 3D characters from alpaca fleece and sell them to maintain my alpaca herd.

Needle felting
Characters or felted dolls
What is needle felting? It is a dry felting method using a barbed needle. You jab fleece with the needle and it tangles the fiber creating felt. This method of felting wool allows you to create 3D sculptures. It's lots of fun. The photo is an example of a needle felted character.You can also felt alpaca wool to make handbags and other projects.
