Indigo Ponchos
Please note Azure is pure merino
The colour that goes with everything. These mid-weight ponchos are hand-dyed with natural organic indigo. Handwoven and hand hemmed in Australian Merino & locally grown alpaca, these ponchos are not only light in weight, but warm and soft as well.
At Ashculme Textiles we walk gently on this precious earth. I hand weave each piece at my studio in rural NSW, using the yarn from our small herd of Suri Alpacas. The process is mostly here on the farm - after shearing, we clean the fleeces before sending them to a local mill where small batches are washed, carded & spun. I use natural dyes working with rainwater that flows directly from the tank and on into the garden after use. In my weaving the designs come as I weave, allowing my fingers to create as they work instinctively.
Our small herd of suri alpacas live here on our farm and I watch them grazing contentedly from the window while I weave. The Merino is Australian-grown and processed, making our slow fashion products truly sustainable and ethical.
Alpaca fibre is resilient and this piece will keep its shape and softness for years.
If you need to wash it, warm water, a ph neutral soap, and minimal agitation are all it needs. Not to be tumble-dried. If you wish, you can iron it with a cool iron, protecting it with a tea towel.
Maternity and breastfeeding-friendly.
