Inspirational trip: textile and Peru

News Date 04/05/2006

Jamie has just come back from a week in Peru, where he was invited to visit some textile companies. Before he left, Diane and he worked together on preparing some design ideas for bed blankets and throws which we hope to have woven and knitted in Peru. Based in Lima, Jamie met some great people with whom we plan to develop a long-term partnership. He found some truly beautiful qualities of royal, baby, and superfine alpaca and visited hand weaving and hand knitting ateliers as well as more industrial production plants. In the next two or three weeks you will discover our new designs: king-size bed blankets in superfine alpaca blended with wool, and smaller throws in 100% baby alpaca. We are really excited about these new developments and can't wait to share them with you, so stay tuned!
