“One of my favorites, always get compliment”

High quality workmanship, unique design and medium weight - not too thin and not too thick. Striking color scheme, even more attractive in person. Will never find this design in a department store. One of a kind.

“My sister loved this sweater!”

I bought this sweater for my sister for Christmas. Here is her review: Soft, well-made, unique. Beautifully packaged with a lovely handwritten message in Spanish from the artist. Medium was a bit on the small side, so you may want to order up. Shawn White (Montpelier, Vermont, USA)

“So very soft and the colors are amazing.”

I received my sweater today and am so thrilled with my purchase. It so very soft and the combination of colors is amazing. I purchased this for the warmth of alpaca for my morning walks and it is everything I wanted.

“Beautiful workmanship!”

Absolutely beautifully made and the colors are vibrant. Fit is true to size but I suggest going up a size if you prefer a roomier style. Photo is realistic as to the fit - more slim than roomy. Packaged nicely and arrived in a timely manner.
