Manuela Ramos
About Our Artisan Partner
The Artisan Women’s House, apart of Movimiento Manuela Ramos, began in 1993 with the goal of improving Peruvian artisans’ quality of life and to promote the consumption and value of these artisans’ work. Manuela Ramos offers a line of accessories, such as hats and mittens that are 100% alpaca, along with dolls made in fine natural fibers. All of their products are hand knit by women in Puno, an Andean region in the south ofPeru known for the quality of its textiles. The women here, aside from knitting, also tend livestock, work in agriculture, and care for their families.
