My Little Raw Alpaca

This is the story of how my sweet, soft little alpaca yarn was made. I ordered it off E-bay,  from a very nice lady it came promptly and was very short stapled only 1.5 inches long and from a very young alpaca. I was cautious about felting it and since it was not very dirty and had almost no vm (ie hay etc) I decided to spin it raw, unwashed, and un-carded. Here is a pic of the fiber :) I just fluffed the fibers a bit with my fingers and started spinning it short draw. More to come in the next post :)
