What you’ll find

What Pacha Textiles is known for

Pacha Textiles works from Huancavelica's central plaza, turning alpaca and sheep wool into shawls, ponchos, sweaters, and the pompom-trimmed hats and gloves typical of the region's highland dress. The shop ships its handmade pieces abroad and takes orders directly rather than only through resellers.
