nice sweaters

The bold, but not overly so, geometric designs on this pullover draw the eye up towards your face. Created in 100% alpaca by Anaychay of Peru, this sweater is both soft and warm, and will be a favorite all winter. Once reserved for Inca royalty, alpaca is extremely warm yet lightweight.

Embroidered cerise flowers go all over a charming design by Briseida Huete from Peru. Working with alpaca yarns for a soft texture, the artisan creates this sweater in a solid cordovan tone that allows it to complement any outfit. On top of that, it comes with a rib-knit bottom, v-neckline and sleeve cuffs.

Martin Lazarte designs this luxurious monochrome pullover with a beautiful combination of knits in a soft and durable alpaca wool blend. He selects a beautiful sepia brown for this cozy sweater.

Martin first learned to work knitting machines while working at a textile factory where he participated in the process from start to finish. He moved on to work on his own, combining the technical knowledge he acquired with his own designs. He now works for a local nonprofit that teaches other artisans the same skills he once learned as a young man to help them access better job opportunities.

From Peruvian artisan Alfredo Falcon comes this solid knit sweater in tan. The design features a boat neck, elegantly draping style and cuffed batwing sleeves. Pair this flowing sweater with jeans or leggings for a look that will get you through winter weather in style.

Winter is a joyous season and Cristina Villalobos's newest design keeps the fun when the weather gets chilly. The Peruvian artisan uses an acrylic and baby alpaca blend to create this soft pullover, which features a crew neck and long sleeves. The intricate pattern, combining geometric motifs with organic shapes is created using a retro palette of chocolate, honey brown and ecru.
