Our luxurious handknits in collaboration with Augden, a contemporary and eco-friendly knitwear line, combine only the highest-quality alpaca wool with traditional knitting techniques.

Committed to keeping traditional craftsmanship alive, each SMYTHE x Augden sweater is hand-knit by indigenous Incan artisans using alpaca yarns sourced locally from the Andes Mountains.

Augden interprets our designs so the end result is a true collaboration. These talented women are able to showcase their incredible skills while also earning a living that enables financial independence and the ability to support large, extended families.
