Hey Baby, What's Your Sign?
Hey Baby, What's Your Sign?
Such a conversation starter. We love the heathered grey tones of this throw against the brightly colored hand-embroidery. It’s sure to pique anyone’s interest.
DETAILS
This 100% baby alpaca throw is as unique as each zodiac sign. The designs are hand-embroidered in a dot-pattern, each with its own color. We think it makes the perfect gift to celebrate a birthday, a special occasion or yourself. One more reason to love it: the hand embroidery is done by a community of women artisans in Callalli, Peru, who gain meaningful employment through their craft.
Each throw comes with a zodiac card listing the traits associated with the sign - Don’t worry, we kept it positive!

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.
HOW WE’RE MADE
Handwoven and One-of-a-Kind
We collaborate with an organization that provides small-scale alpaca farmers and artisans an opportunity to work with international markets and to earn a fair wage. Our hand-knits are made utilizing traditional Peruvian methods to spin and dye our yarn.
We source our woven blankets from a factory with a focus on eco-friendly and social initiatives. Our blankets are produced on an industrial loom and finished by hand. All of our embroidery is done by a group of women artisans in Callalli, a beautiful region in the Peruvian highlands.
