Winter Warmers

From the shearing of the sheep to spinning the wool by hand, then dying the fibers using only colors derived from nature, Putzkan Association knitters craft this adorable set of eco-friendly tree ornaments. Three different sweaters are paired with a traditional chullo hat and matching warm wooly mittens. These winter warmers are inspired by the woolen clothing worn by children in the high Andean town of Huaraz, Peru, where the Association is based.
