How to Choose a Quality Alpaca Sweater

Look beyond the name. These three checks make it easier to compare your options before you buy.

  1. 01

    Check the Fiber Composition

    Check the exact alpaca content and any additional fibers. "Alpaca sweater" does not always mean 100% alpaca.

  2. 02

    Compare Knit, Weight & Warmth

    Compare cuffs, neckline and knit texture. Smooth, brushed and cable-knit styles each create a different look.

  3. 03

    Choose Your Fit & Size

    Use the individual size information. Read the garment's care instructions before deciding how it will fit into your routine.

Dry flat. Store folded.

Support damp knitwear and keep it away from direct heat. Use professional cleaning when required.

How much do good quality alpaca sweaters typically cost?

A good quality alpaca sweater costs more than a cotton or acrylic one, and the price depends mostly on the fiber and the knit: 100% baby or superfine alpaca costs more than an alpaca blend, and dense or cable knits cost more than light ones. Selected Classic Alpaca sweaters currently retail from about $155 at AlpacaNow Boutique.

Store owners see wholesale pricing after their account is approved.

04

What should I look for when buying alpaca sweaters for cold weather?

For cold weather, look for a high alpaca content, a dense or cable knit and a shape that covers the neck, such as a cowl neck or a quarter zip. Alpaca fiber is naturally insulating, so a 100% alpaca or baby alpaca sweater keeps you warm without much bulk, and it layers easily under a coat.

In our collection, the Lena cowl neck comes in 100% superfine alpaca and the Valeska quarter zip in 100% baby alpaca.

Does Classic Alpaca offer custom or private label alpaca sweaters?

Yes. Classic Alpaca makes custom alpaca sweaters to order for retailers and brands, under the customer's own private label. We knit garments from your own designs, or produce our designs for your label, on Stoll knitting machines in our facilities in Peru, with several knit gauges to choose from.

Tell us about your design, quantities and timeline, and our team will plan the order with you.

06

What are the differences between baby alpaca and royal alpaca sweaters?

The difference is how fine the fiber is. Royal alpaca is the finest and rarest grade, about 19 microns or less, while baby alpaca averages about 22.5 microns. The names describe the fiber, not the age of the animal. Royal alpaca feels softer and costs more; baby alpaca is very soft and more durable for everyday wear.

Our sweaters come in 100% baby alpaca, 100% superfine alpaca and alpaca blends; royal alpaca is used in some of our capes, vests and scarves.
