Re: Has anyone tied with Alpaca
Dan and everybody
I prefer tying with alpaca over mohair. I've done quite a bit of tying with it.
Also I tie quite a bit with llama. The average llama has hair that is more coarse than the average alpaca. Individual animals vary. I have a neighbor whose llama is as nice as alpaca.
If you would like some llama send me a SASE 9 x 12 inch envelope and I'll fill it and I'll stuff it and send it back. ( Dan, I believe I've moved since we last swapped, PM me for my current address)

" Fishermen, hunters, wood choppers, and others,
spending their lives in the fields and woods,
in a peculiar sense a part of Nature themselves,
are often in a more favorable mood for observing her,
in the intervals of their pursuits,
than philosophers or poets even,
who approach her with expectation."
