Soft Baby Alpaca. Pastel Stripes. Handmade in Otavalo.

Cojitambo is soft in every sense: gentle pastel stripes of green, peach and beige on a baby alpaca-blend throw.

Named after the hill of Cojitambo in Cañar, home to pre-Inca ruins, this blanket is woven by hand in Otavalo, Ecuador — the textile capital of the Andes — from a baby alpaca wool blend — baby alpaca is finer and softer than regular alpaca and naturally lanolin-free and gentle on sensitive skin. It washes easily and dries fast, which is why customers who buy one usually come back for a second.

Why you’ll love it

  • Baby alpaca – soft, smooth and naturally lanolin-free
  • Warm without weight – winter nights and summer evenings alike
  • Queen size – covers the bed or two people on the sofa
  • Easy care – washes well and dries fast
  • Hand-woven in Otavalo – fair-trade artisan work from Ecuador

  • Queen Plus: 100" x 71" (254 x 180 cm), approx. 900 g / 2 lb
  • Weight: see sizes above
  • Colours: Pastel multicolour stripes
  • Made in: Otavalo, Ecuador — fair trade, artisan woven

“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. And it is not a blanket for babies: this is a full-size adult blanket.

Warmth & fit

Lightweight warmth: alpaca insulates far better than its weight suggests, so this blanket is warm on a winter night yet comfortable as a summer throw. Large enough to cover a queen bed as a top layer or two people on the sofa.

Care

  • 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.

We ship worldwide by express courier (DHL, FedEx or UPS), typically 3–10 business days; local duties and taxes may apply outside the US. Every order includes a small surprise from Ecuador.
