Join the Regenerative Evolution:
Our Farm-to-Closet initiative is an invitation to step into the circle of regeneration — to wear your values and invest in healing, while dressing yourself in beauty too.
In partnership with the Andean Pastoral Livelihoods Initiative and Revolution Knits.
Alpacas are the newest members of the Regenerative Evolution and the stars of our latest Farm-to-Closet Collection. Each sweater in this collection is made from the softest alpaca wool, then hand spun and knit by Peruvian artisans who are all paid a living wage.
The Timeline of a Regenerative Alpaca Sweater:

How Are They Regenerative?
Adaptive Management:
Peatland Restoration:
Peatland soil holds the most carbon in the world — while these special wetlands are only 3% of the Earth’s land mass, they store around 33% of the world’s overall carbon.
Reciprocity between the land, the people who tend it and ourselves.
When this initiative began, we were determined to pay not only the alpaceros a living wage, but everyone within the chain of production, including the skilled knitters who are part of a fair-trade group.
Compared against market price:
- The alpaceros have now made 25% more for their fleece
- The artisans who classify the fiber made 100% more
- The spinners have made 50% more
Meet Mario and Porfirio — each sweater is made with yarn from their alpaca farm in Tinke, Peru. Mario and Porfirio work with the land and the alpacas, nurturing mutually beneficial relationships in which everyone benefits — including the Earth. Alpacas are a part of their Quechuan identity.
