Suri Alpaca


I got 3 Suri fleeces last week.  This is from Lilu.  She is a beautiful white Suri alpaca who lives in Ohio.  Her locks were so long that I wondered if I was carding them correctly.  I still don't know if I am doing it right.  But, the final batt is like silk. It is so soft and shiny.  Very amazing.   I dyed some blue and some green.  The top photo shows the (green and white) fleece still wet and not yet carded.  I will probably dye all the white in wonderful colors!
