In case you did not know, alpaca is a specialty luxury fiber. More alpaca fiber is produced each year than cashmere or mohair. No other animal produces fiber that has the softness of cashmere, the luster of silk, the lightness of goose feathers, the durability of wool, and the warmth of a cozy fireplace. The alpaca has been domesticated (as versus its kin llama, which is primarily a work animal) and carefully bred for over 5,000 years as a luxury fiber-producing animal. Alpaca wool has been prized for centuries for its incredible combination of softness, lightness, and warmth. Alpaca is best cared for by dry cleaning although light soiling can frequently be removed with water, especially if the stain has not set.
This is quality merchandise at a great price. And you no longer have to wait 10 to 21 days for this gorgeous alpaca blanket to be delivered from South America. We now store our inventory at Amazon warehouses in the USA and this product is eligible for FREE Super Saver and Prime Two-Day Shipping.

Great blanket made of great material
By Simmer
I haven't had much experience in purchasing blankets and absolutely none in alpaca. But I figured my first legitimate purchase should be of a blanket made out of spectacular material.It's only been a week but I've grown accustomed to the smoother-than-silk feel of the blanket and find it miserable to use anything else. It is very light yet does a good enough job at keeping me warm. I expect it to perform just as well when the winter rolls in here in the Midwest.It is very thin (less than .5 cm thick) and very light so it may be a delicate blanket. Camping or any other type of roughnecking may lead it to rip easily but I don't plan on using it for anything other than curling up and reading a book on the sofa so it's not an issue for me.As for the aesthetics, I was worried about purchasing this color because the picture did not appeal very much to me. I'm not good at describing colors but in actuality mine is a forest green and I find it very pleasant. It's probably a shade lighter than the picture they provided.Along with the blanket they included a paper describing how to care for the blanket. They remark that the blanket will have many loose fibers that will shed. This is true. The instant I opened my package I fluffed it onto my bed and when I re-folded it there was tons of green-lint left behind. After washing it, the shedding problem is minimized but fluffs still fall off whenever I pick the blanket up. I'm afraid to wash it vigorously because of the delicacy problem mentioned above but either way, I can't imagine there being any loose fibers falling off after a few months of use.The edges of the blanket are merely stitched with white thread. It doesn't bother me but I read that another customer thought it made the blanket look cheap. I suppose the edges are unspectacular but the blanket itself looks humble. To me, the softness and warmth surpass how it looks. It's only been a week or two and I haven't had a real need to use it but already I can say that I'm happy with this purchase.Also, I'm pretty sure shipping took 1.5 weeks to get to Michigan in case you were planning on getting a gift with a deadline. They say it can be much longer if Customs checks it so don't take my time frame as law.

Surprisingly soft and warm
By Geronimo
I wanted a light weight warm blanket and started looking through Amazon's synthetics. However I can't resist natural fibers when I can afford them, and so I tried this item as the price seemed remarkable. The blanket is huge, that is it is as big as a bedsheet, not just a throw size that I expected. Also it is so soft and light that until I got used to it I couldn't tell if it was covering me or not in the dark while watching videos. It is very warm for the weight, although this is not a full winter blanket. Still, it is softer and warmer than my cashmiere which has endured many seasons. One problem it has is a little factory lint. I ran it through the dryer at cool and got most of the lint off. Even so I purchased 2 more for my son and daughter-in-law for Christmas and they seem happy with them. All in all, the touch is the finest and softest that I have ever encountered.
