I read a book "Secrets of Spinning, Weaving, and Knitting in the Peruvian Highlands", which is available in many libraries in California, US. From this book I knew the textile center and decided to visit it once arrived in Cusco. The live demo here is pretty interesting and the goods sold here are of high quality. Yes, it's more expensive than elsewhere and pay attention to the price tag as it's in US dollar, but you can still find something, for example, a 100% alpaca wool long scarf, with weaver's information, at $45, seems good to me; its feel is so soft and warm and the style is beautiful. You can clearly tell the difference between it and the things sold in the market at the other side of the street.

We had a great time learning and practicing backstrap weaving! We were able to complete one bracelet and then learn a more challenging pattern. Katie was an excellent teacher and we loved this experience!

This was a very interesting experience! We were able to learn 2 different designs, and although difficult, they came out beautifully. The spinners and weavers here are incredibly talented. Thank you so much!

We did the half day class, we made a bracelet and then practiced designs after, it was a great experience! The ladies were very helpful, knowledgeable, and friendly! The next time I am in Cusco I would definitely do the full day class!

This is a very informative museum. Well worth a visit. The gift shop sells authentic products made from start to finish by Peruvians. We purchase an amazing handmade shoulder pack and alpaca hat and the woman who made them was there in traditional dress weaving on a hand loom. Much better than the fancy shops next to the main square and much more supportive of the native traditions.
