About HuarmiMaki

Sales 541
On Etsy since 2016
  • My family and I. I'm on the far right.
  • Our visit to Chimborazo in search for alpaca artisans.
  • A small community where families gather to weave alpaca clothing.
  • Only a few of the 100+ women that work on creating alpaca, llama, and sheep clothing.

We're a small family-run community company from Ecuador and the United States.

A letter from Susy:

I am an Ecuadorian woman indigenous native to Otavalo, a place where artisans gather people from all parts of the world to showcase their talents, beautiful designs, and traditions.

My family and I were born in a land full of ancestral cultural heritages which are visible in our beautiful clothing and accessories. We share with you the same high quality clothing made from the skilled hands of our artisans.

HuarmiMaki was born from the idea of working closely with the artisans and their families who spend all their time and skills to create clothing and accessories of high quality and always at the forefront of fashion for our customers around the world.

I really admire your efforts and nobility in such I wish to convey that each article or garment received from HuarmiMaki is guaranteed to be made especially by women, with much love and dedication.

Sincerely for all the woman hands all over the world,
Susy from HuarmiMaki
