AGUAYO INFORMATION:
An aguayo is a rectangular piece of cloth used in traditional communities in the Andes of Bolivia, Chile, Ecuador, Peru and Argentina. The aguayo is most associated with Quechua and Aymara culture but is not exclusive to them. Aguayos typically features colorful stripes interrelated with other figures with symbolic values. Quechua and Aymara women often use them to carry children and take products to the market.

The Aguayo is a native textile made by native indigenous women, it is difficult to create and done using primitive methods. These native Aguayos are done using alpaca, sheep or llama wool, which are colored using natural coloring with bright colors.

Each of these Aguayos tell the story of a community or includes symbols which are original to their culture using colors, techniques and designs which make each community different from the others.

*Currently, artisans are creating Aguyaos with cotton and acrylic fibers, these are no longer done by had but instead using industrial methods. These cotton Aguayos are used to create bags, table cloths, bed cloths, etc. which are sold in the handicraft markets and are bought by locals and tourists.
