While motorbiking through the Sacred Valley in the Andes, I came across a town called Chinchero, and these ladies were very kind as to give me an explanation of how local clothing/blankets are prepared and dyed. To find them yourself, when in Chinchero (very close to Cuzco), ask for "Wiñay Away" (Calle Albergue).
The explanation is entirely in Quechua, the Incan language that these ladies still use themselves. I've included captions in the original Quechua, in Spanish and in English so that you can follow along!
