Women's Alpaca Wool Leggings

They are a perfect fit for me, they're really soft, comfortable and I don't have to keep pulling them up or have any unpleasant wrinkly areas round the knees which is fantastic. Really nicely finished and no scratchy seams. I have only worn and washed once so far but they stayed in shape and didn't fade, shrink or stretch. Ideal!

To my amazement, my lightweight leggings fit perfectly. I put them on and I have been wearing them everyday! My legs have been neither cold nor hot since. You see, one year my husband decided to keep the house temperature much cooler and I got hardly anything done! My knees and ankles felt like I had arthritis. So I started wearing polar fleece jammie pants with leg warmers to hide them under long skirts. Well, that fixed it. Beautifully. But I had no figure instantly. Not one shred of feeling sexy. And, on top of that, my girlfriend was saying that synthetics reak havoc on our hormones. Then our drier broke. For a few months in the winter I just hung things to dry until we repaired the machine. But it got me thinking that polar fleece would not fair well over the long term without a drier, and I knew that it would lose its fluff. I wondered how hand washing as a possible lifestyle necessity in the future would work with my wardrobe. And I wanted my clothes to take up less space. Polar fleece doesn't give me the idea that I am choosing healthy sustainable biodegradable wardrobe options from this world while we still have some access to everything freely. No, I was making uneducated cheap decisions.
Maybe simplifying our lifestyles
with fewer but greater belongings will turn out to be wise in the long run. (I love going outside and inside with more layers. It is far more comfortable. And I just take a bag with me to pop my leggings into for while I am visiting a hot place. My habit is to slip off my skirt and put on windpants to garden, switching after an hour. Satisfying.)
So these leggings looked like cotton when I took them out of the package! (I was worried.) They are so nice and compact folded up. They have a bit of teeny scratchyness. Otherwise I would have thought I bought cotton! I have had no rash from them at all. I ignore the scratchy feeling because it is so minor and then I
forget about it all day long. Surprisingly, I want to dance all the time! I would not be able to wear plain wool. I would rash up terribly. So I have a figure again. Hurray!
Reducing the bulk of clothing is wonderful. Now, I would rather feel soft polar fleece on my legs,... but I want to make my forever choices. And, realistically, they do not get dirty, I have lovely comfortable romantic long skirts over them. Dressing that way makes me want to do so many things. Somehow it makes me feel loved. If I only ever could have a few clothes, I want these leggings to be part of them.
I am 52. I wonder if I will have these for the rest of my life. And how will they hold up? Will they get even nicer? Will they stay warm? How will they be in warmer weather? Colder weather? Did you ever hear of George Washington Carver, that he wore one suit all of his life after university? Fewer, better, wiser personal belongings and a life of purpose and meaning. How? By being able to reduce the space and amount of money one requires to live in order to be burden free.
Thank you for shipping alpaca products to Canada! I greatly appreciate that you made that choice.

Fit well. My size often falls between small & medium. I chose medium in these leggings.& ordered a second pair right after receiving the first. They are more silky feeling than merino wool. Plan on wearing in spring and trying them for cooler summer days. Very satisfied.

Sehr zufrieden, vielen lieben Dank
