Cloth is made from the wool of alpacas.

A cross between an alpaca and a llama is not always called a huarizo or dozer. A cross between an alpaca and a llama can sometimes be called a llapaca.

Huarizo (cross of a male Alpaca and a female Llama) will be fertile. Each of the parent species have 37 pairs (74) of chromosomes so the offspring can 'match up' with other haurizos, other alpacas, or other llamas. Your question likely arises because a cross between a horse and a donkey (a mule) is sterile. The reason is that a horse has 64 chromosomes, and a donkey has 62. Thus then offspring (Mule) have 63, an odd number, meaning it cannot breed back as there are not 'pairs' to match up. and NO, you cannot breed a mule to a mule, because even though both have 63 chromosomes, the cannot 'split the pairs' and then recombine.. as that off chrimosome is paired, and cannot split by itself!

Yes, llamas and alpacas can cross breed. It usually results in a "mini-llama" with a llama looking head on an alpaca size body. Huarizo is the technical term for the cross between a male alpaca and a female llama. Misti is the term for the cross of a female alpaca and a male llama. If the cria (baby) resembles a llama it's called a warilla. If it resembles an alpaca it's called a T'aqa. These crosses are considered undesirable in their native lands of Peru, Bolivia and Chile because the offspring are usually too small to be pack animals and their fleece is more coarse than pure alpaca. In the US, they are sometimes bred because they are smaller and therefore easier to handle than a full-size llama. *Llamas have also been successfully cross-bred with dromedary camels through artificial insemination.
