Open-Front Ruana. Gray and Blue Pattern. Handmade in Ecuador.

Achupallas is a lightweight open-front ruana poncho in gray with black, turquoise and deep blue geometric detailing, woven from a baby alpaca wool blend.

Easy to layer over a shirt, sweater or light jacket, it works as a poncho, wrap, shawl or light cape — for cool evenings, travel or everyday wear. Fringed edges finish the handmade look.

Why you’ll love it

  • Gray and blue pattern – with black and turquoise accents
  • Lightweight – about 1 lb

Details

  • Material: 80% baby alpaca / 20% acrylic — the acrylic keeps the piece soft, washable and in shape for years
  • Color: Gray, black, turquoise and deep blue
  • Size: 47" x 35" (120 x 90 cm) — one size
  • Weight: approx. 450 g / 1.0 lb
  • Features: Open-front ruana, fringed edges
  • Made in: Ecuador — hand-woven by artisans

“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

Lightweight (about 1.0 lb) — warm enough for cool days and evenings, light enough to wear all day or pack for travel.

Size & fit — one size

A ruana is open at the front and wraps over the shoulders, so one size fits most adults.

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 by hand in 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.

Shipping & gift. Dispatched from Ecuador within 1 business day. US orders travel FedEx Express — typically at your door in 3–5 business days, duties covered. 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.
