Featured today are Bertha and Elvira. They are working on a patchwork scarf. Mayu’s patchwork scarf takes the ladies approximately 8 hours to make.
Elvira is a very active artisan and one who is able to afford to send her children to school in the city because of her work with Mayu Hand-Knit Alpaca. Working for Mayu opens doors for the Peruvian ladies to earn income they would not otherwise have access to and still remain at home with their children. Isn’t that the heart’s desire of many mothers all over the world?
