Mayu | Knitting Alpaca Scarves and Hats

Our artisans live, on video

Elivra, one of the most dedicated and hard-working of the
artisans - she is always there to lend a helping hand. She knits
this 4-Color Unisex Infnity Scarf like a machine too.

Horfila, the "master" knitter. She always has the answer and
the solution to all knitting issues. She is knitting our women's
Alpaca Cardigan Sweater in this clip. 

Rosana, always knitting ALL of our alpaca scarf designs
with baby on back. She excels in all fairtrade, eco-fashion and ethical clothing.

Knitting, knitting, knitting

While serving as a Small Business Development volunteer in the Peace Corps, I was fortunate to have met the Peruvian artisans now employed by Mayu. These women are skilled knitters and without them, Mayu would not be able to offer the wonderful selection of hand-knit alpaca scarves, hats, gloves, shawls, wraps, hoodies and throws that we do. It has been a pleasure working with them and I'm excited to share their stories, photos and eco-friendly alpaca clothes with you.
