winter scarf

Inspired by the styles of the Andean mountains, Peruvian artisan Waldo Berrios creates this fashionable scarf. This scarf is knit from a luxuriously soft alpaca blend, which features contrasting hues of black and pumpkin that create zigzags and circle patterns.

The chakana or Inca Cross is an ancient symbol representing the empire's traditional worldview, symbolizing the union and communication between the natural and spiritual worlds. As a sign present in many classic artworks, Peruvian artisan Waldo Berrios draws inspiration from the figure and crafts this reversible alpaca blend scarf in a palette of warm and dark shades, with a soft surface that makes it a cozy garment perfect for this winter.

Intarsia is a knitting technique that uses individual balls of yarn to give color to specific areas. This method is used for this baby alpaca blend hat designed by Peruvian artisan Martiza Oviedo and crafted with a pearl grey base featuring geometric patterns in bright marigold and purple.
