The cream and camel throw is woven by hand from alpaca yarn in cream, camel and light brown.
The yarns are selected by hand and wrapped around a wooden frame to map the pattern before weaving on the loom. After weaving, the throw is brushed by hand with teasel, ironed with a wooden block and finished with hand-sewn edges.
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).
