      Every time I look at Alpine i can't believe you have knitted her, I love her wee face, oh just everything about her is perfect.

      Well we have alpacas everywhere in Melbourne so they mustnt be as expensive here, actually my daughter's friend breeds them.maybe we need to ship one over for your niece.😉
      I have to say I love everyone of your toys but this one I just adore, it's just got the most perfect wee face.

        Thank you Michelle, she sits on my nieces computer desk, they have a smallholding and would love an alpaca but they are very expensive to buy, so for now it's sheep only.

        Hi Sharon, yes it is the Alpaca with Bikini pattern it just looks very different because I made it in the chunky wildcat yarn which knits like fur. x

      When I was looking for a suitable name for my little alpaca I found Alpina it's a Scottish girls name meaning 'Blond'. A perfect name for my creamy coloured girl I think.

        Thanks Sally. I'm not sure it'll convince them though, they are apparently very expensive
