STATEMENT
We at ACHIY keep the traditional knitting expertise of the Peruvian communities alive. Textile art has always been a social event. A possibility to create something together with the family, friends and the community. The traditional knitting techniques are passed on from generation to generation.

STATEMENT
We are guided by traditional production methods of indigenous people. Therefore, all our pieces are carefully handmade in the best possible harmony with nature. We use only natural materials. Our first collection consists of 100% alpaca wool that is naturally dyed with plants from the Peruvian Highlands. Our sourcing and and yarn manufacturer are certified with: AZO, OEKO-TEX and REACH, GOTS and OEKO-TEX 100.

STATEMENT
All our sweaters are made completely in the family workshops of Rubén and Carmen in Cusco – by hand with traditional knitting machines and, of course, 100% baby alpaca wool.

STATEMENT
ACHIY works only with 100% natural materials. Our first collection consists of 100% alpaca wool knitwear products. As every design is handknitted, we can carefully plan the exact quantities and have almost zero left over yarns. We produce in small-series with a "limitation" approach. Each product is considered to be a work of art that is made to last for a lifetime.

STATEMENT
Not only our sweaters themselves, but also our shipping packages have a purpose. RePack reduces CO2 emissions by 80%. As a reward for returning the RePacks we will donate 2€ to our good friends in the Kinsacchocha Community in Paru Paru, Cusco.

STATEMENT
The production of our garments is not just about fashion. It’s about the people who create our handmade works of art with incredible passion, their stories and their lives. The unity of the family is at the forefront.
