All the fabrics made by this community of weavers are a piece of the highest quality thanks to its artisanal process. The alpaca wool used to weave this piece comes from the mountains of this place. The different shades of the fabric are all natural, obtained by a meticulous artisanal process with natural dyes from plants, insects or minerals. The Pitumarca weavers' associations are in charge of dyeing and weaving the piece by hand.

The alpaca fiber is spun by hand with the traditional spindle and according to a very careful technique passed down from generation to generation. Once the yarn is made, according to the different shades of the alpaca fiber, the warp begins to be made on a traditional waist loom according to the design of each Poncho. Once this first step is completed, the weaver begins to weave it. As this is a completely manual process, a lliclla may require, from the beginning of the warp to the finishes, once removed from the loom, more than two months of dedication.
