They are actually Alpacas. And FYI these creatures are a bit like Gremlins...or more accurately Mogwai with a slight twist. You can get these babies wet...just don't put them in the dryer. I'm talking clothing products here, but I wouldn't recommend putting an acutal Alpaca in a dryer either. It would have to be a commercial dryer and I still wouldn't recommend it.
But that's how I got these socks. My grandparents felted them. That means they now stand up on their own and good luck passing your toes through the ankle. But on the flip side now they are smaller and fit in my shoes...I just have to take my feet off first. Okay, so my toes don't get cold on the way home Perfect. Truly a win, win, win.
I've got another pair I sleep in. OH. MY. GOD. That's all I'm gonna say.
