The incredible artisans behind @tropicofc crochet 🪡🧶Each piece is made by hand by Quechua and Mochica women across 3 regions of Northern Peru, Pacasmayo, Cajamarca and Huamachuco. Which makes a team of 120 women who work in their homes or in community centers where they can care for their children and families while generating an income. This is a traditional art form that's been passed down from generation to generation. Each collective is provided with computer literacy classes, as well as an education on critical production skills that allow them to scale while maintaining size consistency. So when you wear these unique pieces you know their history and the beautiful women and story behind how they are made.. 💙 🧡 🖤 💜 💛
