Artesania Sorata was established in 1978. The quality and versatility
of our products reflects this history.
We offer high quality alpaca knitwear and original handcrafts
made from handspun sheep’s wool.
All of our products are made entirely by hand. The yarns
are hand dyed using natural dyes (except for the blues).
Artesania Sorata provides work
for families with low incomes in both rural and urban Bolivia. The income generated enables the artisans to
provide a higher standard of living for their families. The nutritional and educational opportunities
for their children are improved, indeed many have now graduated from
university.
Over the years Artesania Sorata has supported
adult literacy and health programs, creativity workshops in state
childrenīs homes and a childrenīs hearing program. We
believe in the right for all to live a healthy life with a positive
outlook for the future.
