Meet Lorelei — one of our Suri alpacas and wonderful mother, shorn this year at the age of 16. While her fiber may be considered of robust fineness due to her age, it still has luster, lock structure, and unique texture that make Suri alpaca so special. Her locks of fiber average 4" in length. Each package contains 2 ounces of fiber.

Dyed using Gaywool Dyes in a rich color called "Lucerne", this fiber brings a cool vibe to any fiber art project. Soft, silky, and full of personality, each lock reflects Lorelei’s many seasons of grace on the farm.

The color Lucerne is a rich, jewel-toned teal with vibrant green and blue undertones. It has the depth of an emerald forest and the freshness of clear alpine water—bright yet earthy. The tone is bold and saturated, making it especially striking against the natural wood and grass in the background. It's an eye-catching color that would add a beautiful pop to any fiber art project.
