Inca Tops Alpaca Micron Fiber Standards
Alpaca is High Fashion
People are often asking me, “What is “royal alpaca?” and “What is superfine?” How do you know? There are a few different charts and ways to determine. I will be posting a few in the coming weeks. Here is one used by the company Inca Tops:
- Royal Alpaca 19-20 Fiber Length 56-60 mm 2″-2.2″
- Baby Alpaca 22-23 Fiber Length >64mm 2.5″
- Superfine Alpaca 25-26.5 Fiber Length > 65mm 2.6″
- Vicuna 11-14 micron 30-50 mm1-2″

I could not have expressed it better . This is a topic that is that I often think about and I thought you covered it impeccably. I only just started blogging too but I’m not especiallyskilled at it yet. Would love to look at more of your website and I’ll unquestionably return another time!
