FAQ
1. How does Los Andes Shop ensure fair trade?
We work directly with artisan families in the Andes, ensuring they set their own prices. This direct partnership bypasses middle-men, ensuring ‘Dignity Woven In’ for every weaver.
2. What makes this “Affordable Alpaca” different from 100% alpaca blankets?
By blending 40% authentic alpaca with 60% high-quality acrylic, we create a blanket that offers the signature ‘cloud-like’ softness of alpaca but with added durability and a more accessible price point. It’s the perfect ‘everyday’ luxury for high-traffic areas like living rooms or guest beds.
3. Is this blanket suitable for people with sensitive skin?
Yes. Alpaca fiber is naturally hypoallergenic because it lacks the lanolin found in sheep’s wool, which is the common cause of ‘itchiness.’ This blend maintains that smooth, comfortable feel against the skin.
4. How do the “earthtone” colors look in person?
These blankets utilize the natural, undyed shades of alpaca fleece—ranging from bone white to deep browns. Because we use a machine jacquard loom, the geometric patterns are crisp and reversible, giving you two distinct looks for your home decor.
