Title: A+ Alpaca Fiber Mill

URL: http://aplusalpaca.com/

Description: "In our newly built mill, we can individually process your fiber into high quality rovings, batts and yarn. Our mill comes from our own need and desire to have yarn that comes from only our animals - yarn from our farm. It is so exciting to raise these beautiful animals with their wonderful fiber. How frustrating it has been to get that special fiber, which you worked so hard to breed for and to raise, turned into yarn. A+ Alpaca Fiber Mill will create yarn from your farm so you can show off that special fiber! Every farm can have their own yarn to market or turn into garments." -- from the website, 2019.11.01
