Traditionally, impoverished farming families living in the Andes of Peru have used fiber from the local alpaca herds to knit garments and goods. Women are now using their traditional knitting skills and forming artist cooperatives that export hand knit alpaca products, earning much needed incremental income for their families.

The playful world works directly with a certified fair trade cooperative in Peru where our toys are made exclusively forus. By purchasing products from the playful world you are directly contributing to these families and communities located 12,000 feet above sea level.
