Future Fiber Crop

WELCOME!

I met my first alpacas in 2003 and knew right away this was something I wanted to be part of.  While breeding is fun and rewarding, I have become fascinated with the fiber arts and am leaning more towards good quality fiber animals with sustained fineness, density, crimp, and staple lenth.  These are all important aspects to spinning, knitting, crocheting and felting.  How long an alpaca carries these qualities into old age is also very important so as to keep the value of the fiber consistent over the alpaca's lifetime.  I love color and am aiming towards having as diverse a color herd as possible, including pinto and appaloosa with their endless variations and shading possible after carding and spinning.

My future herdsire will be ready to start breeding next spring. He is a beautiful silver gray, Mr. FrostKing with great bloodlines including Peruvian Ion! His fiber is fabulous, very fine, dense and buttery with nice crimp.

Please feel free to contact me at any time. I am always willing to share what I know or point you in the right direction, or just "talk alpaca."  Please visit my Etsy site to see some of my products at West Windz Fiber.
