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.

Cashmere soft and cozy warm!
By Lesley A. Parke
After reading all the reviews we took a chance and ordered two of these throws--one for me, and one for my husband--and boy, are we glad we did! We love them! They arrived much sooner than we expected, given they were travelling from Ecuador to northern California (in about 2 weeks). We use them as throws while watching TV.They are large (which is great, because we're both tall--unlike a lot of throws that are skimpy--these are the size of blankets, so plenty of room to tuck under your feet and pull up to your chin. As another reviewer noted, I wondered how warm they would be, given how lightweight they are, but they are very warm and cozy. We ordered the "soft brown earth tone cream" color, which is an elegant blend of ivory and taupe yarns. One note: The four edges are finished "flat" (vs. turned under) with a machine overlock stitch (using an ivory-colored soft yarn on our throws)--and the corners are rounded. This is the only thing I wasn't 100% sold on--I would have preferred a more finished edge, like a hand sewn rolled edge (which I might try doing myself) or a woven edge like on a pashmina scarf--but it's a minor drawback. I'd buy them again in a heartbeat. Finally, I had wondered whether alpaca might be kind of scratchy like mohair, but happily these throws feel just like cashmere! These are a great price for the quality!

Beautiful
By deefagan
I think the blanket is beautiful. The issue I had was when I placed the order, I assumed that it was in the US. I had no idea that the product was NOT in this country. I received an email that the product was coming from Ecuador, and it would take 2-3 weeks with transit. It came very fast I received it January 10th, ( I ordered it 12/19/2010). My point is when something is put on Amazon, we the customers, should know this information up front. It would have changed my decision on which product I would have purchased.

Should you buy the extra soft Alpaca wool reversible throw blanket?
By Sanjay
I bought this blanket after reading all the positive reviews in Amazon and probably I had over expectation.The positive points: material is 100% wool and soft, decent size (can easily cover twin size bed), light weight, non scratchy even when new and fast international shipping.Coming to the negative points: I tested this blanket for the warmth, and tried it the first night as a single blanket with room temperature at 65 F. OMG, I woke up midnight to have an additional blanket with it. I assume the primary reason for feeling cold was due to blanket being thin. I added another blanket and it gives me warmth even at 65 F (The other blanket is also thin and I feel cold if I use it alone).The second issue is wool separating constanatly from blanket. I assume with time once the loose wool is separated, this should no longer happen. But my other blanket is covered with loose wool, and sometimes my beard in the morning too.Final verdict: You definitely need an additonal blanket in cold room temperature. Better labelled as a throw rather than a blanket. Lastly it is expensive if you buy it to use as a throw.
