  A nice selection of alpaca products, from sweaters and scarves to yarn itself. I had bought socks from the stand in the Strip District in Pittsburgh, but the store has a more varied inventory, including whole winter coats made out of baby alpaca--what luxury! A fluffy white pillow caught my eye, but the $100+ price made me put it back (why are pillows so expensive!), and I moved on to the incredibly snuggly stuffed lion, which I bought as a gift but which I'm having trouble letting go of. I wish that more of the items were from the nearby alpaca farm rather than Peru, but I understand the cost of labor makes that difficult. You can get yarn or roving from the farm's alpacas, as well as dryer balls and some little knit pouches, plus they have a Mennonite woman weave their fiber into small rugs in the style of round/oval rag rugs.
