The Art of Handcrafting
Each finger puppet is a testament to the rich tradition of knitting among the Quechua and Aymara people. These artisans, many of whom are women, have been honing their skills for generations. They work from home, using their creativity to produce these colorful puppets, which not only serve as toys but also as a means to supplement their family's income. The handcrafted nature of these puppets means that variations in color, size, and design are to be expected, making each puppet truly one-of-a-kind.
