About an hour drive from Lake Atitlán through bumpy, winding roads is a family run co-op that weaves many of our napkins, towels, and beach towels. They use 100% cotton dyed with sustainable, non-toxic colors.
We’ve been working with this family for about four years on a number of simple, striped patterns. They also specialize in ikat dyeing where colors and patterns are first painted onto the warps before being attached to the loom.
