Guatemalan Handcrafted Rayon Chenille Shawl, "Crimson Fantasy"
The soft cozy warmth of bamboo chenille is transformed into a shawl of bold elegance in several shades of red, brown, lilac and fuchsia. Different teams of artisans within K'amolon K'i K'ojonel are involved in the creation of this rayon chenille shawl made from bamboo, from those who dye the yarn, to those who spin it, to those who weave it on a backstrap loom. And everyone is working from home, keeping a millenary textile tradition alive.

"Perfect for me!"





This poncho is so lovely, even though the colors are a lot different from the picture. The colors are much more muted, but I love the Fall colors, the soft material, the excellent workmanship and the drape of it. I have fairly broad shoulders, so I was afraid it might be skimpy on me, but it isnt at all. I think it would be a good fit on a lot of different shapes. Thanks to Novica and this weaver! I hope to buy more items from her.

"Beautiful, wearable art!!"





I absolutely love this scarf!!! I have at least 20, but this is now my favorite! The colors are gorgeous, and the material is fine and comfortable. I was afraid that it would be bulky, but it isnt, and it lays perfectly. This is now my favorite, go-to scarf!! It turns any plain outfit into something special!
