Despite their super cute, cuddly appearance, alpacas are not, in fact, giant teddy bears. Rather, they are South American camelids closely related to llamas.

Alpacas are most famous for their hair, known as fiber, that can be shorn off and turned into beautiful, useful, warm yarn perfect for hats, coats, scarves, blankets, and more.

And you can learn more about these beautiful, practical creatures with a visit to Kismet Acres Farm in Capon Bridge, West Virginia. Kismet Acres breeds outstanding Huacaya alpacas for superior quality fleece.

You can visit these amazing alpacas up close and personal by calling ahead to schedule a visit to Kismet Acres. But visiting with some new furry friends is just one of the things you can do here on the farm.

At their on-site farm store, you can also shop a variety of local products, from clothing to cosmetics and many items in between.

And yes, there's always plenty of Alpaca yarn in soothing natural tones for your next knitting or crocheting project!

(If you're not a crafter, don't worry - they've got some scarves and blankets pre-made just for you!)

To learn more or contact Kismet Acres Farm about coming for a visit, head over to their website or Facebook page.
