Contrary to many of the women at KNOWN SUPPLY who have moved to Lima in search of work, Gladys is a native of the capital city. Her family moved their before she was born and her parents did various odd jobs to support her upbringing. Although she was able to attend high school, steady work eluded her post-graduation. She now lives in Pacifico and works to provide a better future for her family. She is dreaming of what’s next and it’s beautiful to see!

Gladys --
I'm so grateful for the hat that I bought this weekend at Sasquatch! Festival. When the rain came, I had nothing to cover myself with, and your beanie offered me the warmth that I was missing. Thank you for taking the time to create the pieces that you do. You are appreciated!!

Mrs. Gladys,
A very dear friend of mine blessed me with a beautiful scarf you made as a gift for my birthday. I can't begin to tell you how precious it is too me. It is so warm and cozy. It's feels as if I am receiving a hug each time I wear it. I can feel the love and pride you take in your work intermingled in the material.
Never give up on your dreams and relish every moment spent with your family.
That memory of your birthday parties as a child is just a small piece of the joy I feel when I wear your scarf. Your joy is contagious and I thank you from the bottom of my heart for sharing your talent with others.
May God grant you health, happiness and peace in knowing you are fulfilling the purpose He has for your life, one scarf at a time.
Blessings!
