* LUXURY * Alpaca is one of the finest and most luxurious natural fibres in the world, often more highly prized than cashmere. It is known for its softness, superior warmth and durability. It won't pill (bobble) and will last much longer than synthetic fibres.

* WARMTH * Alpaca is four times warmer than lambswool. This is because the fibre is hollow inside which means it insulates incredibly well, whilst still being very lightweight. It has a lovely feel as it is breathable.

* ECO FRIENDLY * The alpacas that provide the fibre we use in our ponchos graze on the high plains of Peru. Their hooves do not damage the ground in the same way other grazing animals do, which can lead to desertification in intensely farmed areas. As alpaca is a pure natural fibre, it bio degrades completely.

* FAIR TRADE* Our entire range of luxury alpaca knitwear is designed in England and lovingly hand made at a small women's co-operative in Peru. We have worked with the same ladies since 2008 and we share a trusted relationship. All our clothing features a label giving information about our work in Peru.

* COLOURS * This sleeveless sweater comes in blue, green or brick red (a rusty red).

* WASHING * The properties of the natural alpaca fibre repel dirt and moisture, so your vest will not require washing as frequently as a cotton or synthetic sweater. Hand wash or machine wash it on the gentle woollens cycle in lukewarm (30 degrees) water with delicate woollens detergent and it will wash brilliantly and stay like new. Do not tumble dry, just lie flat to dry.

* ORIGIN * All of our 100% alpaca products are made using top quality alpaca fibre which we source from the highly regarded Peruvian manufacturer 'Michell'. Our garments are all washed and pressed so they will reach you in perfect condition.
