Social Profile :

Gift shops filled with handmade items offer a unique browsing and buying experience, and they give you the opportunity to purchase something one-of-a-kind for yourself or a friend. At Oomingmak Musk Ox Producers’ Co-Operative in Anchorage, AK, every item in their shop is made by one of the 250 Native Alaskan women who own the Co-Op. Underneath the wool of the musk ox, there is a soft, downy substance called Qiviut. Although it is eight times warmer than wool, Qiviut is surprisingly lightweight, making it perfect for climates of all kinds. The items in the traditional line are 100 percent Qiviut, or 80 percent Qiviut and 20 percent silk in the newer Tundra and Snow line.

Native-owned gift shop stocking traditional hats & scarves hand-knit from Arctic musk ox hair.

A little small gift shop and parking can be a challenge.

I love all information regarding quiviut yarn and the handmade products from it.

It is a very small shop staffed with native personnel who are very familiar with the products offered. Musk ox is like cashmere. Very soft and very warm. Prices are what you would pay for most fur products. If you are in the area check it oyt

I fell in love with musk ox when I saw them along side the Dalton highway. I read about this shop on the kiosk at the Hilton front desk Everything they have in their shop is gorgeous and is truly hey beautiful pieces of artwork hand knit with much talent and love. The staff there are very knowledgeable and friendly.Each piece is unique and worth every penny!

Local co-op specialized in musk ox fur products. Very pricey but fantastic quality, incredibly warm while light and soft.
