Made from 100% llama fiber, our Andean crewneck sweater is a reinvention of a collectively designed classic Andean textile. The combination of prints and colors makes it unique not only because of its design, but also because it is made entirely by hand and with natural dyes. The woven fabric is robust and warm, and in combination with jeans it is a casual companion for the cold season.
The model (1.65 m) is wearing size S
Made from llama wool, of course.
Long-sleeved sweater made with hand-spun yarn from small producers and hand-knitted with circular needles. This garment is made by a network of more than 120 artisans who work in widely dispersed and isolated areas. Dyeing with natural dyes is manual work and requires a great deal of technical and specialized knowledge. Vegetable dyes are used for our Andes sweater. Thus, fuchsia, pink and violet colors are obtained from beets and cabbage; The most beautiful shades of yellow come from turmeric, and the green ones are obtained dyed with yerba mate. In this way, these ingredients, with their corresponding natural stripping agents such as lemon, achieve the most beautiful colors in South America for our garments.

Flame fibers are warm, have an insulating effect on cold days and at the same time provide thermal balance, that is, they can perfectly regulate heat and cold. In addition, they are made with natural proteins with very low lanolin and fat content, which makes them highly recommended for allergy sufferers. Due to their grazing behavior (they feed on grasses), llamas do not uproot vegetation like sheep, cows and goats, but rather perform pruning in which the grasses are better preserved.
