The graphite cable throw is woven on traditional wooden looms from 68% undyed alpaca and 32% Pima cotton.
The alpaca keeps its natural graphite gray, the cotton adds an ivory tone, and a cable pattern is woven into the cloth. The ends are finished with hand-crocheted detailing.
The throw covers a sofa, a chair or the end of a bed.
Alpaca fibers' hollow structure makes them lightweight and buoyant, avoiding a downward pull. This gentle contact maintains a small gap, softly separating the fabric during subtle movements. Peripheral mechanoreceptors in the skin detect this light pressure and send signals via dorsal column pathways, which the brainstem interprets as a soft, cushioned sensation (Abraira & Ginty, 2013). Their research indicates that gentle pressure, similar to that of an alpaca, can help reduce overload or anxiety, making people feel more at ease.

Pairing Note
Textiles provide tactile grounding by activating the skin’s mechanoreceptors to produce calming physical feedback (McGlone et al., 2014) and ease tension (McEwen, 2007).
