Welcome to Pistyll Gwyn Alpacas.
Pistyll Gwyn is our home in South West Wales, where we keep a small herd of top quality alpacas, and use their fleece to produce fine yarns and other goods.
Alpacas
We usually have for sale a small number of animals each year, primarily of interest to other small breeders who want to introduce top class genetics into their herd.
For Sale:
Heulwen (pregnant female)
Silky / Walter (suri package)
Iolo (young intact male)
The Yarn Shop
Visit our shop to see what products we have on sale at the moment.
We have recently started focussing on supplying fleece for handspinners, and offer washed fleece, and hand-carded batts, in stunning natural alpaca blends and using naturals dyes - madder, logwood, chamomile, indigo etc.
We may have more yarns and garments for sale later in the year.
All our yarns, batts and garments are hand-made, hand-spun and hand-woven here at Pistyll Gwyn and so are quite unique. We will also consider commissions, and are happy to work with you to make sure you can get exactly what you are looking for.
