Description

These simple, elegant gloves are hand-made in Arequipa. They are thin and light, yet surprisingly insulating.

The yarn is hand-spun, then knit by experienced artisans like Susana. This means you will see and feel the story of the glove in its structure, including minor variances that give each piece its own unique personality.

Both white and black gloves are naturally occurring alpaca fibre colours, no dyes needed.

Sizes are approximately suited for people with smaller to medium-sized hands. People with larger hands may feel the fingers as being too short.
