Hand-Knit Textured Mittens by Marcella

These mittens feature alpaca fibre from our herd. Sheared, skirted, and sorted on the farm, it is then milled to produce the beautiful yarn used to make these mittens. Hand-knit by artisan Marcella Patenaude, they sport interesting textural features. The more they are worn, the softer and cozier they get! A modern twist on an old-fashioned favourite!

Homegrown

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.
