Miski means "sweet" in Quechua and this is the sweetest alpaca scarf you'll ever own! The Miski Wide Alpaca Scarf is luxurious, ample, and oh-so-soft! The rich shades of these baby alpaca scarves are made using ancient natural dyeing techniques - from the cochineal insect - once more valuable than gold! - for the red and rose tones, and the indigo plant for blue. 

This baby alpaca scarf is a classic unisex piece that is perfect to combine with a thick sweater or jacket. Wear it as a voluptuous warm scarf or a stylish women's shawl wrapped around the shoulders.

Stay warm, look great and make an impact on the lives of indigenous artisans - all at the same time!

WHO MADE THIS BABY ALPACA SCARF?

The Miski Wide Alpaca Scarves were handwoven by an indigenous artisan from the Andean community of Upis, using handspun alpaca fibre from the weavers' own alpaca herds.
