RESERVE YOURSWARMTH WITH MEANING
High in the Peruvian Andes, alpacas have adapted over thousands of years to dramatic mountain temperatures. Their extraordinary fleece naturally regulates body temperature — keeping you warm when it’s cold and comfortable when temperatures rise.
Every sweater we carry is made by one family in the Sacred Valley of Peru, working a tradition that goes back centuries. More than a garment, each piece carries the story of the Andes and the hands that created it.
CUSCO, PERU
Alpacas resting on the grass, ponchos hanging in the stalls behind them. This is where the wool leaves the animal and starts becoming something you wear.
SACRED VALLEY, PERU
The wool is spun by hand and woven by hand. It never goes on a machine. From fleece to finished garment, every stage passes through the hands of the same family — working a technique they inherited, in a tradition that goes back centuries.
Alpaca can scratch. The family’s inherited technique takes that out of the wool before it is ever spun, which is why one of these can be worn against bare skin.
No mill, no powered loom. The yarn is made by hand and the garment is woven by hand, the way it has been done here for generations.
Arduous work, start to finish. What we bring back each season is what this one family had the hours to make.
WORN ON THE ROAD
THE PIECE YOU'RE RESERVING
The women’s cut is a clean ribbed crewneck, knitted to order in the shade and size you choose. No pattern, no embroidery — the yarn does the talking.
The ruanas, ponchos and patterned cardigans further up the page are other pieces the Caravan carries — they are not part of this pre-order.
