What will you do?
We will meet at the police station in Chinchero to go to our house in the historical center. We will welcome you to our house-workshop with a matecito de muña and an andean snack. Then we will go through the history of the chullo, emblematic garment of the Andean man and we will start together the process of creating the chullo, from the shearing of wool, the washing of the fiber, the spinning with distaff, the dyeing with natural plants until the final weaving of the chullo.
