Rudy was born and raised in Apurimac, Peru where she worked in the local market selling vegetables. Her work was inconsistent and she didn’t always know where or when her next paycheck was coming from. Since this time, Rudy has blossomed; she loves to knit and has begun making her own hats and sells them to the locals in Pacifico. She is learning a lot about herself through this process and is thankful for a consistent and stable income.
FAVORITE CHILDHOOD MEMORY

MESSAGE TO THE PEOPLE WHO PURCHASE YOUR PRODUCTS

Hey, I bought this hat about 2 years ago, and I never realized that it said your name on the tag. I want to thank you for making this hat, it is keeping me warm in the cold weather of Michigan. Happy Thanksgiving and Merry Christmas.

Rudy,
Thank you so much for my beautiful hat! I purchased "the Bridget" a couple of months ago and it is amazingly made. I have been to your country, Perú, two different times: once in Lima for two weeks, and over last summer in the small coastal town of Pacasmayo. I am so thankful God has given you the opportunity to live your dreams through KKP. He will do amazing things in your life. Thank you again for your incredible work.

Hello Rudy!
I just wanted to personally thank you for the product that you made, I absolutely love it! I received my Braided head band in the mail today and was so excited it is so beautiful. It is going to be really perfect for the cold canadian winter still ahead. I live in Okotoks Alberta and the snow on our front lawn is almost as tall as me! so this headband will be a perfect winter accessory for when I head to school our out to the mountains. Thank you so much for your hard work and I wish you all the best in the future.
Love,

Rudy!! Gracias muchísimo por mi gorro de 'Amor' - que es de verdad una forma de arte. Nunca he tenido un gorro que cabe mi cabeza tanta bien, y me encanta los colores y la mensaje que manda las palabras. En el año que viene, voy a vivir en Lima y estudiar, y siempre pensaré en ti cuando estoy allá llevando mi gorro. Buena suerte con su trabajo y con sus sueños! Que vaya con Dios,

Hi Rudy, Coming from a person who has trouble finding a hat that keeps me warm and doesn't make my head look ever weirder. I absolutely love the style, the Alpaca yarn and love how soft and warm it keeps me. I can see the love you put into your warm. Thank for the hat and I hope you will reach your dreams in the near future because you deserve it. Take care.
