Ayni in Quechua (The native language of the Incas) means exchange system.
Ayni represents the ancient Incan exchange systems, where textiles were traded for goods, . This concept inspired Amano to develop Ayni: The blend of super soft baby alpaca (21-23 micron) with shiny mulberry silk brings the sense of the Andean exchange in its cosiest form. Garments made from this luxurious yarn are warm and drapey and will soon become your favourite.
The alpaca in Ayni is sourced in Peru, where Ayni is also spun and dyed.
