WELCOME
TO
EL JORONGO CUSTOM
DESIGN
WOOL RUGS &
SWEATERS
We offer TOP quality handwoven natural wool rugs and handknit Merino wool sweaters at rock bottom prices. How? Simple. We make our own products from scratch in a family run business begun in 1970.
Sabino Aguilar, my husband, selects
and buys the wool in fleece from local sheep ranchers
and has it washed, carded and spun by the López family. I, Ruth Mitchell de Aguilar, dye
the wool by hand using both plant and aniline dyes depending on the season
and the colors needed. Our grown children work with us.
Sabino's aunts, cousins, and nieces take the wool yarn home to knit each sweater by hand. El Jorongo's rugs are woven by hand on the manual wooden looms used since colonial times.
El Jorongo at Av. L. Cárdenas #521 in
Pátzcuaro, Michoacán is open from 10AM to 7PM CT daily.
We will personally attend requests for information or phone orders
from 8AM to 8PM CT seven days a week . E-mail requests will be answered
within 24 hours.
We
will be pleased to help you with anything that we can based on our personal
experience of over 39 years in the handloomed wool business. For wholesale orders please see
our Wholesale page. For shipping details
see our Shipping Guarantee. |
