Close-Knit Alpacas launched"Make an Offer Monday!" in 2005 and was the very first alpaca business to propose that one simply "Make an Offer...Monday!"

Stud Services
We had not originally planned on having a stud on our farm so quickly into the launch of Close-Knit Alpacas; but as our business evolved, and as our knowledge increased, we found ourselves realizing that if it were at all possible to locate and acquire an exceptional male (or two, or three?) that would stand stud on our farm, we would realize exceptional growth in the quality of our small herd, and more quickly. We realized we would also experience an opportunity to more easily share what we feel are outstanding genetics and qualities with other alpaca breeders desirous of the same traits we feel are paramount in the development of ideal alpacas. Since we have been blessed with adequate space and facilities to accommodate such males and the offering of their services to visiting dams, we decided this is a service we are quite happy to offer the alpaca community. We hope you will spend some time to get to know us, check out our facilities, and get acquainted with the males we have chosen to serve as our foundation herd sires.

"Who's Your Daddy?!"
Knowing the answer to this question for any alpaca you are considering as a purchase, is more important than you might think! The pre-potency and consistency of what the sire delivers to his progeny also carries over to his offspring (as do traits from the dam), so "the proof is in the puddin'" so to speak! We've got a fun and educational little game you can play, created by a client of ours (Deborah Tabor of Autumn Star Alpacas). Match the Herdsire to his offspring! See if you can tell which alpaca was sired by which stud, based on phenotype alone! Can you tell by looking at them? Give it a try!
Please fill out the form to the right to inquire about specific alpacas that interest you. Full Farm Guarantees Apply to ALL. We look forward to hearing from you soon!
Psst! All who make their initial inquiry about an alpaca listed on this site that they ultimately purchase via Close-Knit, will receive 2 special "Close-Knit Collectibles" 100% pure alpaca sweaters along with their alpaca purchase, as our special Thanks!
