"The colours remind us of sunrises over the volcano," say the women of the K'amolon K'i K'ojonel association, who create this unique poncho. Working on a back strap loom, this community of women first weave the fabric with cotton and bamboo rayon yarns. The fabric in shades of rust, teal and saffron is then then stitched together to create this simple poncho, which allows the artistry of the fabric to be the hero.

I received this beautiful scarf today. It was well worth the cost, which could have easily been more. The mingling of blues and lavenders is absolutely beautiful. The softness yet sturdy feel of the scarf allows it to feel good against the skin, and yet not be victim to snagging of threads. I am so pleased with this purchase. The artist should be very proud.

Im allergic to wool, so this scarf has been perfect for warmth in winter. The colors are beautiful. Im able to wrap this around my neck twice and still have enough length to tie the ends in a fashionable knot. Its very soft against the skin and has not pulled or snagged, as it is very tightly woven. Would make a wonderful gift.

The colours in this beautiful poncho reminds me of the beautiful bioluminescent forest from my favourite film. It is as soft as silk to the touch and the shape reminds me of folded butterfly or moth wings. Absolutely exquisite. And the fact that it is eco friendly and supports wonderful artisans and their families brings a warmth to the heart that transforms this piece from beyond wearable art to a philosophy.
