Suffolk Alpaca
Connecting Nature and Crafting
A message from Clare (and Clement!)
So Autumn is upon us after an amazing long Summer. I don’t like to complain, but the lack of rain in this part of the country has been a nightmare for grass and the alpacas have been forced to exist on hay for much of the Summer. The field sadly looked pretty dead for most of the time!
I really enjoyed the Hadleigh Show and Clare Priory Craft Fair this year, but sadly wasn’t able to make the Coogeshall Barn as I had a nasty fall two weeks before and couldn’t stand or sit easily. I blame Fergus as he had a long piece of netting attached to his foot and I thought it would be a good idea to stand on it as he went by in the hope that it would become unattached. Unsurprisingly it didn’t work and I got pulled over flat down onto my back!
My final fair this year is in Lavenham Village Hall on Sat Nov 22nd and Sun 23rd – 10 until 4. A great opportunity to buy. your Christmas presents from real people! And if you want something sustainable – please come and have a look at my stall! (See events page for more details)
I do hope to see you again soon at either a Craft Fair or on a workshop.
Warmest wishes, Clare x

Step out of the busyness of your everyday life and take time to stop and create.
Spend time with the alpacas and then make something beautiful out of their fleece in a peaceful space.

Suffolk Alpaca Eco Craft
Connecting with Nature
My work is created from the softest fleece provided by our three beautiful alpacas. Norman, Fergus and Clement. Each unique piece is spun, woven or felted entirely by hand in a slow and sustainable way, creating something that brings nature itself into your home.
