FAQ
How common are pinto / multi (fancy) alpacas?
White and fawn shades are the most common; true blacks, rose greys and appaloosas are among the rarer colors.
Can you dye pinto / multi (fancy) alpaca fiber?
Spotted and patterned fleeces are separated by color during skirting; each part is then treated like its solid color.
Does color affect fiber quality?
Historically white and light colors were bred for fineness first, so dark fleeces were often coarser. Decades of selective breeding have narrowed the gap considerably.
