We at A Simpler Time-Alpacas & Mill invite you to take a step back to a time when the pace of life was slower. We offer products that can help you savor the simple pleasures in life...Whether it is a Schacht spinning wheel or alpaca roving to enjoy a relaxing moment, an alpaca teddy bear to cuddle in soft luxury, or natural yarns to knit up into a satisfying project, we hope you will find what you are looking for at A Simpler Time Store.

We are a family owned and operated business in the outskirts of San Diego. The alpaca yarns and rovings are made in our fiber mill from our own alpacas. There is an array of natural colors as well as a good variety of hand painted yarns to choose from. We are suppliers for Schacht Spindle Company, Interweave Press Books, and Jacquard acid dyes.

Life is often moving too fast and we would like to encourage you to slow down and enjoy each moment. Come on in, look around and select your simple pleasures.
