Oh, alpaca is wonderful. I made my daughter a scarf that was alpaca and
bamboo. I haven't done much with it because it is very expensive, and the
store I bought it at didn't have a very good variety of colors. I have a
friend that used rais alpacas for the fiber, and she knows where to buy hand
dyed fiber in great colors. Again, though, it is very expensive but
beautiful.

My favorite changes occasionally, but currently it's Cascade Superwash wool.
It's easy to work with, comes in lots of colors, makes beautiful fabric, and
is washable.  But I think I'll have to change to regular instead of
superwash, as superwash is not environmentally friendly because of the
chemicals involved.
I also love alpaca and alpaca with silk.  So soft and warm.
Tracy
