Shop handcrafted 100% alpaca knitwear and woven home decor, made by Quechua women cooperative above 14,000ft. in the Peruvian Andes.

We raise our alpaca, spin the fiber to yarn and handcraft each piece, blending tradition, sustainability, and connection.

Travel and time are wild. One day you can be 14,000ft in the Peruvian Andes, workshopping daily with the most talented Quechua women, creating handwoven textiles, knitwear and pieces shaped by life at elevation. Then suddenly you’re back in the Sierra, sharing those same creations at as thousands gather for closing weekend at .

From the high Andes to Tahoe in what feels like the blink of an eye. The contrast is beautiful and disorienting all at once. Different mountains, different rhythms, yet somehow connected.

Thank you for the warm welcome home. One of my favorite parts of the weekend was hearing people stop by to tell me how much they love the knits they’ve bought from us. I can’t wait to tell the ladies. 💛

I have so much to catch you all up on from my time in the Andes.

Our tiny Andean planet 🌎

This is Bertha and Romualdo’s home which has become my home in the Andes, where I stay, where we work and where so much of this dream has grown.

For years, they have been a quiet but powerful force behind Cultural Threads.

We dream of one day having our own local place to gather, stay warm and create together.

Each year, it feels a little closer, thanks to you.

To work within another culture means learning that your way is not the way. It means listening first. Respecting customs and understanding that community comes before business.

Living here alongside these women, I have shared so much of life with them… celebrations, laughter, long days of work, love, and life’s hardest moments.

When I arrived to the mountains on this trip, an uncle of Victoria and Alejandrina had passed away.

So everything paused.

There was no workshop.
We did not knit.
We simply sat together.

The entire community gathers in these moments. Grief is shared, not carried alone. Days are given to honoring the person who has passed and to being present for those left behind.

This was not the first time I have experienced loss alongside these women, and each time I am reminded that Cultural Threads is not built on transactions.

It is built on trust.
On respect.
On showing up for one another in every season of life.

This is the real foundation of our work. And this is why what we create carries so much more than craftsmanship.
