Our Alpaca Slouch Beanie brings together comfort, warmth, and a modern relaxed look. Made from exceptionally soft U.S. grown alpaca, this beanie offers a gentle slouch at the top for effortless style while still providing dependable insulation in all kinds of weather.
A soft micro-fleece lining around the headband helps the hat stay secure and shields your forehead, ears, and neck from chilly winds. The upper portion remains breathable and lightweight so you stay comfortable whether you are out for a winter walk or on the move outdoors.

Putting our Fiber to Work - Overview:
Island Alpaca contributes half of our annual harvest to a local fiber cooperative which supports not only our farm, but other alpaca farms. Our local fiber cooperative is a processor that prides itself on producing high quality alpaca products and maximizing the value of our raw alpaca fiber, so that we can offer, in turn, these high quality, environmentally and socially conscious alpaca products to the market.
At Island Alpaca, we give regular fiber supplements and ground flax daily to our alpacas, helping to promote overall good health and a superior quality fleece. Our alpaca fleece is so fine that last year a large portion of our "seconds" (neck fiber) were re-sorted into the "prime" (blanket) category. Our textile lab has shown results that indicate that our alpacas are some of the finest in the country.
At Island Alpaca’s annual shearing, we skirt and hand-sort the fleeces in order to produce a range of products which use all grades of fiber. At the cooperative, it is then sorted by color and grade, then hand baled, scoured, spun, and finally either machine knit or woven into beautiful, high quality alpaca products. Once the product is received at our Martha’s Vineyard farm, these items receive the Island Alpaca label and then become available to you for purchasing.
We hope you enjoy our products produced by our local fiber cooperative.
