Kuva ka Alpaka kugira Inzira — Gucapura, Gukunda no Gukanda

Hitamo umweru wa alpaka utakajugwa. Alpaka itera hafi ya 16 ibara ntagatifu — ubwera, krimu, beige, kaholo k'inyuma, kaholo k'izina, gizani ky'imbiza, gizani cy'ikumba no gifu. Buri bari birashobora gukandwa nta ginkano ry'ibara. Umweru umwe urinimbere 1,5 na 3 kg.

Tekaneza umweru ku mahoro yatunganye. Kuramo inzira z'ibintu — ibara ry'inyumba, amaguru n'ibintu byitutsi cyangwa biharariwe. Fibre nziza cyane ituruka mu nda (inyuma n'impande).

Kwanya fibre mu itsinda: fibre nziza y'inyuma (kuva ku nzira nziza), fibre yambukiranya z'impande (inzira ikwiraneza) kandi fibre ikomeye y'umutwe (kuva ku tapi cyangwa indangamirizo). Fibre ya alpaka irahinduka 18 kugira 30 microns ukurikira ahantu h'umubiri.

Shyira fibre mu mazi ashakiro (30-35°C). Alpaka nta lanolina, ubwoko nta sabuni ikomeye kandi nta mazi ashakiro cyane. Iga mu mazi umunota 20 — ntacabanye, fibre irashobora gukunda.

Niba hari inyuma irambye, gukora gucapura ryambere hamwe na tare ya sabuni ntagatifu mu mazi ashakiro. Shyira mu nzira — ntacabanye. Ubwoko bwa lanolina bubwo bubica gucapura neza cyane kuruta intama y'intama.

Kwerekeza fibre mu mazi icyane na cyane kugira amaguru yuzuye kugira amaguru yuzuye. Ubwoko bubwi bushobora kugera. Kwerekeza neza nta gitika.

Tekaneza fibre yacapiwe ku nzira cyangwa umutwe mu mahoro yatunganye. Vuza nini na nini. Fibre ya alpaka imiza neza kuruta fibre y'intama kubera ko itabibiga amavuta.

Gufata buri myanda imaze kumiza no kuigwanya neza mu mirwe kugira gufunguriza ubwoko bwa fibre. Kuramo ibintu byose bituruka aho. Akazi hamwe itsinda ryose — ibi bivuzeza gukunda cyane.

Shyira gipipa ku genu hamwe n'amenyo akimbuka hejuru. Sukuza ipaji rinini ry'alpaka fibre ku menyo. Ntacyongeza cyane — ipaji rinini gikunda neza cyane.

Gukuramo gipipa cyambere hejuru ya gipipa cyambere hamwe n'imvano nziza kandi nde, gikwiraneza fibre hagati y'ibiri. Subiramo 5-6 igihe kugira fibre yose hari inzira imwe. Fibre ya alpaka ari yo y'icyuva kuruta fibre y'intama — imvano zinini ikunze gukora.

Kurika fibre yakuntse ahantu h'icyo gipipa gikora icilindirike kirini — rolag. Fibre ya alpaka nta mahoro yihuta kuruta ibara ry'intama, ubwoko rolags zibera zinini. Ibi ni ikintu gisanzwe.

Shyira inzira-njia (60 cm ya inzira iyo ari yo yose) ku nzira y'ibintu, hasi y'irimbangamirizo. Gishyiramo ku mahoro y'irimbangamirizo kugira ku nzira. Iyi nzira-njia ivumburanya inzira nshya.

Gufata utugufate tuogo t'alpaka fibre no gukwanya ku nzira-njia. Fibre ya alpaka ari yo y'icyuva — gukora icyuva kinini (8-10 cm) kugira kwemeza icyuva nziza iyo torque igera.

Gufata neza neza gipipa gikore guhumeka mu nzira ya umurozi. Kurekeza kugwa bwino — umurigo w'irimbangamirizo imigabanya guhumeka. Torque ikunvamo hejuru kugira igera mu fibre irangiza hejuru y'inzira y'icyuma.

Iyo gipipa kigira imbaraga zinini, rimya hari genu ryacu. Kwandika fibre nyinshi ku rolag, subiramo inzira y'icyuma kuva torque igera, noneho gutesha inzira yamaze ku nzira. Fibre ya alpaka ikeneye torque nyinshi kuruta ibara ry'intama kubera ko ari yo y'icyuva.

Iyo ufite ibipima bibiri byuzuye n'inzira yoronyonse, gutesha mubibi bibiri. Gufata inzira zombi hamwe no guhumeka gipipa mu nzira ihinyuranyije na gukanda. Inzira ebyiri zoronyonse zishwahirira zikora inzira y'abacu baviri, ikomeye kandi iyikwano.

Shyira inzira y'abacu mu mazi ashakiro mutagati 20. Gutumbura neza — ntacyambire. Kurekeza hamwe n'umurigo rinini mu maharo kugira kumiza mu maharo rinini. Ibi gibica torque izihezerana niba hari amaharo.

Iyo imaze kumiza, gutesha inzira hirondose mu nkondo cyangwa icyambere gikora meada. Shyira mu maharo abiri kugira nta gukira. Inzira yacu y'alpaka irimo guhinga — kugira kwubaka, kwikoma, cyangwa kuguma kuva mu ginkano ntagatifu.
