Handmade with Love by Mamita Hilaria.
This poncho carries the energy of the high Andean lakes, where the mountains meet the sky.
Its woven flowers honor Pachamama Mother Earth and the beauty she offers through the land, the water, and the plants.
Each thread is guided by prayer, care, and ancestral knowledge passed down through generations.
This is a one of a kind piece means that there is only one like it ♡
This poncho is handwoven by Mamita Hilaria, a woman from the Andes who carries the ancestral knowledge of her people. She learned to spin and weave from her mother and grandmother, as their mothers did before them.
Mamita raises her own alpacas in the highlands. She gathers the wool with care, spins it by hand, and dyes it using plants from the surrounding mountains following traditional methods passed down through generations.
Each weaving is a prayer, inspired by Pachamama. The symbols tell stories of the land, the plants, and the waters woven for protection, harmony, and the deep connection between people and nature. This is not just clothing; it is a piece of living tradition.
