T’ika is an amazing place with a welcoming community! I visited T’ika with a group of friends and participated in their bracelet workshop. From this experience, I learned so much about how weaving/textile making work. Would highly recommend to explore this place and to see the wonderful work they do.

Centro Textil URPI is located on Av Garcilaso No. 160 just outside the town of Chinchero. En route to Machu Picchu, a stop at this lovely place with a pen of alpacas and one Llama (all vying for our attention), together with a number of Peruvian women in national dress who demonstrated their weaving. With excellent English one of the ladies described how the yarn is dyed and how they make the dyes. Refreshments were served and afterwards the ladies – their wares laid out side by side on tables - competed for our attention to sell the lovely garments they had made. There was also a slightly upmarket ‘shop’ with beautiful coats, jackets and shawls made of the very find baby alpaca wool, absolute terrific quality and worth the bit extra to pay. With Xmas then only a month or so away, everyone bought something. Great quality and I highly recommend a visit.
