Here's we'll go over some of the differences with baby alpaca and polyester.

Alpaca vs Polyester on thermal regulation

  • Alpaca Wool's Superior Insulation – Alpaca fibers have a hollow core that traps air efficiently, providing warmth without bulk. This means you need less material to stay warm in cold weather.

  • Polyester's Solid Fiber Structure – Unlike alpaca, polyester fibers are solid, trapping less air and reducing insulation. As a result, you may need more layers to achieve the same level of warmth.

About Me
I started making my own clothes because what I found in department stores were not resonating with me — they lacked the quality and connection I wanted to feel when wearing them. I wanted pieces that felt unique, intentional, and worth investing in. Through this journey, I discovered a passion for crafting garments that not only reflect individuality but also prioritize quality, sustainability, and thoughtful design. This passion ultimately led to the creation of Rivelle Knits, where I strive to redefine what it means to buy and wear clothing with purpose.
