Nancy
Knitter
Arequipa, Peru

Indulgent Alpaca - the fair trade cashmere of the Andes.

It takes but a glance to know how special these items are. The delicate textures and vibrant patterns are as much art as apparel, hand-knit by skilled Peruvian artisans. Nancy, who began knitting in a Mothers' Circle in 1985, translates the drawing of designer Mary Ann Weerts into stitch patterns - bringing the delicate details to life. Nancy now employs several women in her community to hand-knit these complex and beautiful sweaters. "My dream," she says, "is to employ more knitters, so more mothers can help their families as I've helped mine."
