cloak poncho

Handloomed cotton is lightweight and lovely, woven on a backstrap loom. By weavers from the Community Association of Tzutujil Women, this classic poncho takes its color from groundsel leaves and black peppercorn foliage. It can take up to three days to prepare the threads before the weaving begins.

Capturing the spirit of the Andes, this luxurious poncho from Peru is designed by Alfredo Falcon. He weaves this poncho from a lovely cotton blend in solid olive, decorated at the center with a stripe of subtle geometric patterns in cherry and alabaster.
