Hand Crafted Peruvian Alpaca Wool Sweater, "Inca Muse"

"Perfect sweater"





This was a gift for my mother in law, who is in her 80's - the fit is flattering, and so is the color - material is so soft - she loves it, and it looks just wonderful on her. The size small was perfect for a petite woman - I would guess that she would normally wear a small in most of her tops, so the sizing was right on.

"I love this sweater!"





I love this sweater! It is a beautiful design and color. The size large is roomy and comfortable without appearing baggy. It is chilly in Alaska, so I usually wear a wool turtleneck underneath the cardigan. aI have another alpaca sweater, as well as alpaca socks and they all are super soft and keep be very warm. I will look for more products made of Alpaca wool from Novice in the future.

- Keep warm and cozy, and looking terrific!

"Lovely Sweater !!!"





I bought this sweater for my husband birthday, and he just love it! The color is just like you see in the picture (very beautiful), it is also highly well made, and the size is perfect!, I was worried before about the size due to in Europe the clothes tend to be in smaller sizes, but this sweater fits perfectly well! My husband is very happy with his gift!
