Alpaca Family Pattern

My Alpaca Family pattern, which previously appeared in Crochet Gifts magazine, is now available in my Etsy shop and on Ravelry.


With this pattern you make two sizes of alpaca, baby and adult. They've just been shorn, but they still have lovely floppy fringes. I used Stylecraft Alpaca DK, which is an acrylic yarn with 20% alpaca yarn in the mix, to give them a lovely soft feel. You can make them in fun bright colours, as I did, or use more natural shades.




 Make just one, a family, or a whole farm of them!

  1. Your alpacas are very cute! I love the unusual colours and the design. How did you make the hair?

  2. Thank you! The fringes are added afterwards, sewn into the top of the head.
