If you have an alpaca blanket, it’s time to clean it! Alpaca fiber is naturally soft, but with repeated use and exposure to dirt and dust, your blanket may start to feel rough. Here are four easy steps to cleaning your alpaca blanket:

  1. Remove any excess fabric by cutting the blanket into smaller pieces if necessary.
  2. Fill a large bucket with warm water and add a mild soap. Soak the blanket for about 10 minutes, then rinse it off thoroughly in the bucket.
  3. Hang the wet blanket on a clothesline to dry completely. Be sure to shake out any excess water before hanging up the blanket!
  4. Once the blanket is dry, you can restore its original softness by using a wool washcloth or brush to remove any dirt or dust particles from the surface of the fabric. ..
