Carding Alpaca wool

The guy we got the highlands from (and who owns the bull they recently went to visit) also has alpaca. I mentioned I am learning to spin and he gave me some alpaca wool - we recently lent him our horse trailer to take some of his cows to a show. I have finally got round to starting to card it having washed it some time ago.


I am planning on spinning it with a drop spindle, but am feeling tempted to buy a 'proper' spinning wheel - but where would it GO??? There is a travelling one by Ashford though!
