Why I love them: I have thicker calves and have never been able to pull socks up to my knees. They have just enough give to make this possible. I wear them camping, under my jeans, with my pajamas and they fit nicely in my boots. |

Why I love them: I wore these for the first time in Pennsylvania at an alpaca show. It was really, Really, REALLY cold! The first day I didn't wear them and I was miserable. The second day I tried a pair. I was so nice and comfortable! I love them!!! (did I say that already?) |

Why I love them: We got our first blanket in 2013 on our Alpaca Trip to Ecuador. Whenever we get a new product Brian tells me to "test it and abuse it". I take my job seriously. We've made this blanket our camping blanket. I've washed it at least 50 times and dried it. It's STILL in awesome condition! It's kept me warm on many a cold night!! I also have one of these alpaca blankets on the bed in our guest room and two on our king bed (someone in our family is a blanket hog). :) |

Why I love them: Commercial Dryer Sheets have a LOT of chemicals in them. Luckily Alpaca Dryer Balls do not! They reduce drying time, soften your clothes and you can add essential oils to them if you like. Plus they are good for the environment!!! Win-Win |
