Artisan Heritage

Alpaca fiber has been valued since the time of the Inca Empire, once prized more highly than gold or silver. The knowledge of spinning and knitting alpaca has been passed down for centuries, resulting in a rich textile tradition that blends old-world techniques with contemporary design. Alpacas graze gently on Andean grasslands and are shorn without harm, producing fiber in up to 28 natural colors that retain their natural luster without harsh chemicals.
