INKAWANA

We are a sweater manufacturer and wholesale company based in peru. There cultures that fluorished before the incan empire have given local artisans the legacy of exceptionally fine knitting expertise and since ancient times the andes people have been known for their hand looming, exquisite embroidery, crochet work and elaborate hand knitting. Our goal is to offer our sweaters kipping identity with this ancestral know how in hand knit and hand loomed products. We constantly experiment with colors, patterns, textures and endless motifs revealing the astonishing medley of colors and forms from the rich andean knitting ways. These ways and styles emulate the many traditions that rely on a passion for beauty and harmony and are the base of our knitting and design techniques carefully adapting them to modern fashion trends worlwide. We knit our sweaters in silky soft peruvian cotton, unique velvety alpaca and original blends with only the best yarn companies. We use "cottage industry" to give work to groups of housewives that are sometimes the sole support of their homes. It is important for us to provide these people with a chance for a better life in a country where jobs are scarce and poverty prevails. We absolutely do not employ child labor.
