Bolsa














Bolsa
Why the name Bolsa? Simply because this is our modern take on the pattern of the classic reusable shopping bags often seen in Latin America. This warm and incredibly soft throw is made of 100% Baby Alpaca. While our Bolsa is quite happy at home, we encourage you to take it for a spin around town or wherever your global travels may take you.
P.S. Feel free to get cozy with it upon your return home.
DETAILS
Made of 100% baby alpaca and using five different colored yarns, we took the classic plaid pattern and enlarged it, while finishing the ends with eyelash fringe. The result is a more modern feel. It’s perfect for use at home, your next fireside gathering, or in transit to your next destination.

what we’re made of
Peruvian Alpaca
Why alpaca? Alpacas are curious, social and (we think) adorable. Their fleece is renewable, sustainable, and eco-friendly. They are also gentle on the environment- they only eat the tops of the grass, and their softly padded hooves have little impact on the land. Alpaca fleece is hypoallergenic, resistant to breaking and pilling, and a great insulator. Oh, and have you felt the ‘paca? It’s softer than cashmere. We promise you’ll never go back.
Our Flora is a botanical inspiration made of hand crocheted flowers that rest on a hand knit throw. It is both sumptuous to the touch and the eye. The clusters of cascading flowers will sit beautifully at the edge of a bed, draped on a chair, or wrapped around your shoulders.
DETAILS
This 100% baby alpaca throw has been crafted by many hands. The raw alpaca is spun using an ancient tool called the pushka, while the dying is done using both traditional and contemporary methods. It takes two weeks to knit each throw. All of this is done in collaboration with women artisans in the Arequipa region of Peru. The entire process provides meaningful employment and a fair wage, while introducing the world to the artisans’ many skillful crafts.
Material: 100% Hand Spun Baby Alpaca
Measurements: Approximately 78” x 40”
Color: Cypress, Mustard, Cloud, and Charcoal
Origin: Peru
Care Instructions:
Please note: there may be slight variations in color and pattern due to the hand-dyeing and knitting process. These characteristics make each blanket unique and are central to the handmade process.
Please keep in mind that color fading may occur if your alpaca pieces have continued direct exposure to the sun. Natural dyes are more susceptible to fading in direct sunlight.
Texture, color, and softness - this throw has it all! We adore it, so please treat it kindly: Dry clean only
