Sustainability in Fashion: The Environmental Impact of UK-Sourced Alpaca Knitwear
Forget everything you think you know about sustainable fashion. The truth is, most luxury knitwear hides its environmental cost behind glossy labels. But when you choose UK-sourced alpaca, you’re wrapping yourself in warmth that honours the land and the animals right here in the New Forest. Let’s explore why our eco-friendly fashion, crafted from the finest alpaca fleece, offers more than style—it offers a story you’ll be proud to wear. Read more. #SustainableLuxury #UKAlpaca
The Promise of UK-Sourced Alpaca
Unveiling the layers of alpaca knitwear, you'll find more than just a soft touch against your skin. This journey begins with the ethical care of our gentle alpacas.
Ethical Animal Care
Imagine alpacas grazing peacefully in the New Forest. It's not just a pretty picture—it's a promise. These animals are treated with respect and care, ensuring their well-being. You see, happy alpacas produce the finest fleece. Each animal is part of our family, and their gentle nature reflects in the quality of our products. Their grazing habits are gentle too, nurturing rather than depleting the land.
Our commitment goes beyond just words. We partner with farms that share our values, ensuring that every step in our process supports responsible animal care. This connection between animal welfare and exquisite fleece makes our knitwear truly special. To learn more about our practices, check out our detailed insights here.
Sustainable Farming Practices
Our approach to farming is simple: work with nature, not against it. Our alpacas graze without uprooting plants, allowing the land to thrive. This harmony with nature is not just sustainable but essential. By letting fields regenerate naturally, we ensure that our farming practices are kind to the earth.
We also use alpaca manure, rich in nutrients, as a natural fertiliser, enhancing soil health without chemicals. This method supports biodiversity and keeps the land vibrant. Our dedication to sustainable farming is our way of giving back to the planet—a small step towards a greener future.

Alpaca fleece is unlike any other. It's soft, light, and incredibly warm, making it a dream to wear. But what truly sets it apart is its hypoallergenic nature, perfect for sensitive skin. You might be surprised to know that alpaca fleece is water-resistant, too, making it ideal for unpredictable weather.
Our commitment to luxury means using only the finest alpaca fleece. Each piece is crafted with precision, ensuring durability and elegance. The natural colours of alpaca fleece offer a palette that's both stunning and sustainable, without the need for dyes.
