“Natural fibre makes a house a home.“
- Lucy Aylett
the proCess
our alpacas are a prize winning herd with silky genetics, perfect for soft, cosy and very lush rugs.
SHEARING
The alpacas are sheared to stay cool in the summer. The wool is then collected and prepared to wash.
WASH + DRY
The fleece is washed with a rain water catchment system and eco friendly products, then dried in the sun.
CARDING
The fleece is then carded to straighten the fibres into roving.
ROVING
Once it has been carded, it looks like long, combed fleece. This is the process before weaving into a rug.
WOVEN INTO RUG
It is then woven to create a rug, this is a long yet therapeutic process.
We feed our alpacas organic hay harvested from our own fields, daily vitamins and minerals and a natural feed that focuses on indigenous alpaca herbs such as the bark of South American Lapacho trees.
Nutrition is very important for good quality fibre!
Our rugs can be used for horse tack, bedroom floors, yoga, pilates, meditation + much more.
Inspired by our Alpaca yoga, tai chi and other wellbeing workshops we have found our rugs perfectly add to the authenticity of the spiritual practice.
Cushion prices start from just £50
