Colorful Otavalo

The market at Otavalo has many kinds of art and craft, but the Otavalenos are most well-known for their textiles and weaving. A walk through the marketplace is a feast for the eyes of color and texture.


These are some scarves that I got this time.













Wonderful weavings.















Woven bracelets and hat bands.
Pants made from handwoven fabrics.



Aren't these masks great?
