Why Choose Forever Amano?
We're inspired by the past but looking to the future.
Since 1988, we’ve been working closely with incredible artisans in Ecuador to provide ethically sourced, handcrafted, and fair-trade sweaters and knitwear. That’s why on our garment tags you’ll find the name of the exact knitter who handmade your sweater.
‘A mano’ means ‘by hand’ in Spanish.
Over the last 40 years, we’ve worked closely with knitters from Carchi to create collections that celebrate color lovers and free spirits who want to invest in clothing with a human connection.
