"Drawing inspiration from the majestic peacock and rich Andean textile heritage, Peru's Maria Cutipa creates this remarkable intarsia knit cardigan in a deep blue shade. The shawl collar cardigan is expertly crafted from 100% alpaca yarn and is adorned with embroidered floral, leaf and geometric patterns, with an impressive peacock motif at the back that steals the show. Adding to its charm are the handpainted ceramic buttons which closes the front, elevating the garment to a work of art. Front patch pockets."

"Everything I know I learned in school and from my parents and sister. It was sometimes very difficult to find the materials and a space in the market to sell our work, but we never gave up. My family, husband and children always supported me and we managed to get ahead.
"My inspiration comes from our history of Inca weavings, which is one of the oldest textile traditions of the Andes and was one of the most highly developed during the time of the Inca empire, due to the different materials and techniques they used. This hybrid culture was created through the conquest. The Incas were able to create a great variety of apparel and weavings for everyday use.
"Inca textiles are characterized by their geometric patterns and their finely developed techniques. Their tapestries and feathered cloaks are legendary. Inca art shows an extraordinary sense of symmetry, which is reflected in the neatly organized figures.
"I use alpaca fleece, wool and cotton and do everything by hand. My greatest challenge is keeping up with fashion trends, and I need both creativity and inspiration to create unique and high quality apparel that sets me apart from others.
"One of my dreams is to create a school to train students to create beautiful woven and knitted apparel. I want my family to be a part of this venture and work together to pass on our passion to future generations.
"My textile art reflects my history, my roots and my family."
