The camo poncho, done in alpaca: a soft, warm hooded layer in olive, brown and sand, with a button neck and fringed hem.
Sacha means “forest” in Kichwa, the language spoken by our weavers in Otavalo.
We took the cut of our best-selling western poncho (wide, fringed, with a hood and a single button at the neck) and wove it in a woodland camouflage pattern. It belongs outdoors: at hunting camp, on an early fishing morning, by the fire pit or at a festival, and it goes straight over a jacket when the temperature drops. Earthy colours mean it also works with denim, leather and boots in town.

“Baby alpaca” is the name of the finest grade of alpaca fibre, not the age of the animal — alpacas are shorn once a year, like sheep.
Warmth
Mid-weight (about 1.8 lb). Light enough to wear indoors, warm enough for a cold evening outside.
Size & fit — one size
A poncho has no sleeves or seams to fit, so one size fits almost every adult; your size mainly changes how much of you it covers.
One of our widest ponchos. Generous arm coverage on any frame, including 3XL and up.
If you're 5'4": hem just below the knee, arms covered to mid-forearm.
If you're 6'2": hem at the knee, arms covered past the elbow.
Hand wash cold with a mild detergent (or delicate cycle in a mesh bag)
Do not bleach or tumble dry
Lay flat or hang with support to dry, out of direct sun
Steam or low iron with a cloth if needed
Handmade, so no two are identical. Each piece is woven and dyed by hand in Otavalo, Ecuador. Colours can be a shade lighter or darker than on screen, and fringe and pattern placement vary slightly — that is the signature of a real artisan piece, not a flaw.
