OUR INSPIRATION
We find our inspiration in the natural gifts that the Peruvian Andes bring. The Andes is infamous for its alpacas, and that is where we create, develop and produce our yarns with decades of experience and great pride.
The Andes is also the homeland of an ancient textile culture with colorful patterns and countless tales woven into each thread. We call it: A gift from the Inca Gods.
OUR COMMUNITY
Our customers are a group of knitters with whom we build the soul of Amano. Full of creativity, passion and curious about new experiences, our community inspires us each day on our quest to discover more treasures to share.
Our customers love to create with their hands - and we simply love to provide them with luxurious natural yarns that bring the Andes into each home.
