Bag from Peru

Nilda Callanaupa Alvarez from Peru had beautiful woven textiles.  Most of her work is a combination of wool and alpaca.  Since I have a problem wearing alpaca, I settled for a bag.

"Founder and director of CTTC, Nilda began spinning wool from sheep and alpaca at the age of six, and was weaving her first patterns by age seven.  CTTC weavers are remarkable in the quality of the textiles that they produce as well as their emphasis on traditional designs and techniques."
