Russet
A simple classic you'll want to wear all winter, this buttery soft jersey shawl is handmade by Samantha's artisan team in Peru using 100% Alpaca. Light, but incredibly warm (alpaca is about 3 times warmer than the same weight of sheep's wool), Samantha's alpaca scarves are generously sized (approx 80 x 180cm). They are very fine, too, so you can wear them as a shawl on an evening out, but also as a neck muffler inside a coat. Alpaca wool is hypoallergenic as it contains no lanolin and has very low prickle factor.
Approx 80 x 180cm
100% Alpaca
Made in Peru
About Samantha Holmes
Samantha Holmes founded her company in Scotland in 2003 to offer a new ethical lifestyle concept in Alpaca Clothing and Homeware. The company is still owned and run by Samantha from her home on the west coast of Scotland. Originally an Art and Languages graduate from Edinburgh University, Samantha found her first inspiration for luxury fabrics and traditional craftsmanship in Nepal from where she imported cashmere from a small hand weaving cooperative. But it was on discovering alpaca, that she found her niche. Samantha travelled to Peru to connect with small knitting collectives, most of whom she still works with today.
