100% Peruvian Baby Alpaca

Softer than cashmere. Warmer than wool. Woven by one pair of hands.

Est. Lima · Houston

We make one thing, and we make it completely. Each LS Alpaca shawl is spun from the first shearing of a young alpaca — the finest fiber the animal will ever grow — then woven by hand on a wooden loom in the Peruvian highlands. No blends. No machines finishing the edges. No second best.

The Shawl Collection

Woven in Peru from 100% Baby Alpaca. Designed for quiet luxury and lasting comfort.

The Film

Woven on a backstrap loom

No motor, no frame. The warp is tied at one end and tensioned by the weaver’s own body, so the cloth answers to how she sits, leans and breathes. It is the slowest way to make a shawl and the only one that gives this hand.

The backstrap loom. The weaver's own body holds the tension; every pick is placed by hand.

At the loom

Forty hours of work stand between the animal and the shawl. The fringe alone is knotted one strand at a time.

Why baby alpaca

The rarest of the noble fibers

Softer than cashmere

A fiber of 18–22 microns, with no lanolin to prickle at the neck.

Warmer than wool

Each strand is semi-hollow, so it insulates by trapped air rather than by weight.

Naturally hypoallergenic

No wool grease means most people who cannot wear wool can wear this.

Origin & Responsibility

Four thousand metres above the sea

Alpacas have grazed the Peruvian altiplano for six thousand years. Thin air, hard frost and high sun are what make the fleece what it is — and what a hundred and twenty thousand Andean families still live by.
