Stitching Wool in Cusco

by Bradley Huffman

Sunlight strikes the ochre stucco of a Cusco workshop, illuminating a wooden drying rack laden with vibrant, hand-dyed alpaca wool in shades of crimson and saffron. Below, a local artisan’s hands manipulate a heavy iron sewing tool, stitching a thick cushion cover with precise, rhythmic tension. The rough texture of the wool contrasts with the smooth, painted wood of the rack, while pebbles pressed into the muddy threshold outside mark the boundary between the dusty street and the cool interior.
