“Lightweight and Carefully Crafted”

This matches a dusty lavender sweater and I like the dainty quality. Great workmanship. Good gift for someone. This artist makes this style in other colors. Would buy again.

“So SOFT!”

This is the most beautiful sweater I own. My hubby bought a baby alpaca scarf for me which was incredibly warm and so soft next to my skin. This sweater surpasses that as it is a cuddly warm bundle of a hug! It has a delicate knit pattern so I will take extra care when its time to clean it. No more sheep or lambs wool for me... I am converting to baby alpaca clothing!

It arrived as promised, beautifully wrapped, with my gift message, easy return instructions, and a bit about Novica and a sweet hand written note from very gifted artisan, Wilber Calapuja.
