Inspired by the magnificent Mount Sajama, Bolivia's highest peak, Sayama captures not only the essence of this awe-inspiring landscape and the iconic llamas that roam its slopes, but it embodies the rich cultural heritage of the Aymara people, known for their deep spiritual connection to nature and sustainable practices.
By blending luxurious llama and highland wool together, we bring you a yarn that is perfectly balanced between lightness and sturdiness, without compromising on quality or comfort and that is especially tailored for Scandinavian-style knitting and multicolored designs.
Sayama's color is inspired by the vibrant Bolivian culture, blending the rich hues of llama wool—from white to deep black—with the soft tones of highland wool to create a diverse palette that reflects the region's spirit. Each shade tells a story drawn from the stunning landscapes, traditional textiles, and vibrant local festivals, honoring Bolivia's natural beauty and celebrating the craftsmanship of artisans who preserve their cultural heritage through weaving and dyeing. With every skein, we aim to convey a piece of this enchanting atmosphere.
Produced in Bolivia, at a factory nestled in the heart of El Alto, Sayama is Eco Text 100 certified. While llama wool doesn't yet have mass ecological certifications, we personally ensure the welfare of the animals involved in its production, guaranteeing both quality and ethical standards.
