Christmas Shopping
We had a very busy summer attending three farmers markets each week. It is always exciting to share our alpacas with people.
Time to start thinking about Christmas shopping. Give the gift of alpaca; it is very warm, soft and hypo-allergenic.
We now have a lot of hats, scarves and headbands that have been locally knit using our own alpaca yarn. Be sure to check them out carefully, each item is labeled as to which alpaca’s fibre was used to produce that item. Perhaps you would like a toque from Kanata or a beret from Shadow, a scarf from Kizi .
We had a lady who couldn't decide what hand knit item to buy a friend, so instead she bought her some of our yarn so the friend could knit exactly what she wanted.
We are now attending Christmas Bazaars and Craft Shows. The following events are all confirmed and we will update the list as we sign up for more shows.
