Got some light brown Alpaca today. It's really fine and sort of slippery
(almost dubbing-like). Any specific patterns that use Alpaca?

Specific, no. If you have hanks of it, it works quite well for streamers.
Additionally, I mix it with Angelina fibre to make dubbing for stone flies.

Thanks, I was going to try to incorporate some into the streamer hooks I

picked up but, thanks for the stone fly idea...much appreciated Frank.
