Heirloom Lace Alpaca Booties, Cloud

The HEIRLOOM LACE Booties, an heirloom treasure.

A seamless knit design featuring an heirloom lace pattern with a contrasting scalloped edge detail and i-cord ties to keep secure. A true keepsake.

Hand knitted from 100% Alpaca, these booties are ethically handcrafted in South America according to Fair Trade principles. Combining traditional methods of craftmanship with modern design, these pieces are truly unique heirloom items.

Alpaca is a luxurious fibre that is so soft to touch, the strands are smooth and it has the most wonderful silky sheen. Garments produced from alpaca are extremely durable; the strength of the fibre reduces the chance of stretching and it is also resistant to pilling. If cared for correctly, your hand knit will last a lifetime!

Alpaca is also a natural thermostat; the fibre is breathable with an insulating nature. It keeps body heat in, in cooler temperatures and releases it in the warmer temperatures. It's also non-flammable and due to alpaca’s water-resistant properties, you can simply dab away any spills. Grease and oil don’t spot as easily either.

Alpaca is naturally hypo-allergenic; it is free of lanolin that is present in wool. Therefore it is less irritating to the skin as it doesn’t scratch or “prickle” the skin like wool products can.

Care Instructions: Cold Hand Wash. Dry Flat. Do not Bleach.
