Based on a seaside tradition, these mitts are 100% alpaca…yarn on the outside…rovings on the inside. With wear, the inside felts to provide a windproof, waterproof liner. Machine-knit using our alpaca by local artisan Elizabeth Hastie.
Customer feedback: “…wonderfully warm, great for events with a lot of standing around, or walking on very cold nights.”
Do not put alpaca in hot water, agitate it, or dry in a dryer or on a heat source.
Soak in room temperature water with gentle detergent or shampoo for 30 minutes, rinse, gently squeeze away excess water, and lay flat to dry.
Wipe soiled area with a damp cloth free from soap, and allow it to air dry. Gently brush fur when dry and shake to fluff.
