Handwoven hooded wool poncho

These all wool handwoven hooded ponchos are the finest example of weaving skills honed and passed on over generations. 100% wool is not waterproof, but does shed water due to its lanolin content, and keeps you warm even when wet. These ponchos aren’t just about style and warmth – they’re about heart and soul. Made by a young indigenous crafter family in Ecuador, your purchase allows this type of cottage industry to continue to flourish, providing a dignified income.  That's why all Los Andes Shop products have "Dignity Woven In." Each poncho features traditional Andean patterns, a hood, and buttons at the neck made of tagua, also known as vegetable ivory. One size fits most adults - no waistline measurement or sleeve length to worry about!  43" wide, 36" from shoulder to bottom edge. Many of our customers purchase these ponchos to wear outside - hunting, fishing, camping, or hunting for Bigfoot. Cleaning: hand wash in cold water, hang to dry, or dry clean.
