Over $89.9 million sent to artisans so far!
Lightweight and warm, this handsome sweater is knitted of an alpaca blend. Alfredo Falcón creates a classic men's design in navy blue.
Alfredo's sales have increased more than three times since starting with Novica. He started with only a few assistants and now can offer work to his helpers and several other women who help fill his orders part-time. Many of the women who work for him are now able to provide essentials for their homes like mattresses, refrigerators, and other appliances.
Over twenty years ago, Alfredo was infected with tuberculosis at just 22 years of age. For nine months, he was bedridden and unable to work. Tuberculosis is a deadly disease with more than 5,000 people per day passing away from the disease. Alfredo survived and was able to become healthy again.
Alfredo currently provides full-time jobs to a single mother, a man trying to fund his education, and several women who are bringing income to their households.
Alfredo currently supports English studies for his four nephews, with the hope that it will help them achieve a better future.
Alfredo was recognized by the city hall for his excellent work.
Soft and warm, he says he absolutely loves it!

I desperately needed to refresh my sweater collection and grabbed this to see how I felt about Alpaca. Turns out, I'm a fan. As a denizen of Southern California, sweaters are my heavy coat and this fits the bill perfectly. Over a t-shirt or polo, this lets me comfortably brave the occasional frigid upper 50s.
